It would be nice - but when ANK does somethink in some way there is reason usualy. I've already been thinking about it as #ifdef CONFIG_X86_TSC #define PSCHED_CLOCK_SOURCE PSCHED_CPU .... I can found no reason why don't use TSC. With highly loaded interface where eth interrupts are faster than timer ones it should make flow smoother. Without TSC all packets within single timer tick (10ms) are treated as havin the same arival time. CBQ's clock integrator based on HW speed computations overcomes this and it might be reason why ANK left JIFFIES here. If you think that you have such power to convince people about it then go ahead. :) devik
