Here are interbench numbers for a pentium4 HT with 2.6.16-ck1 and 2.6.16-mm1
The rules I use for flagging diffferences are:
1. Deadlines met is the primary endpoint.
2. When latency is out of bounds, what is the worst max latency as that will
be the most noticeable jerkiness, stutter etc, but I only flag them if at
least one value is >=7ms since that is required to be human perceptible.

Summary:

Audio 1 1 1 1
Video 5 0 5 1
X 4 2 6 1
Game 2 4 5 3
Note that most of the differences between -ck and -mm on this benchmark are
due to the staircase cpu scheduler in -ck. It has staircase v14.2 as recently
posted to the mailing list.
