Took a quick look at this. Only ~8000 lines of well documented code. Yeah. Except, to understand that code, it is necessary to understand a lot about kernel context, and flow. Not to mention all the possible side effects a change here could cause. Because of the research I did with Gentoo experience, I'll assume that this code is working. It's many years old, and mature. Discretion is the better part of valor. ;-) > Btw, here is a good explanation of Linux SMP scheduling: > http://tinyurl.com/o4nuaxr > > And also take a look here: > https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/scheduler/sched-design-CFS.txt > http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/bfs/3.0/3.18/3.18-sched-bfs-460.patch > (BFS is designed with latency in mind, not throughput). > Thanks. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
