i'm pleased to announce release -v8 of the CFS scheduler patchset. (The
main goal of CFS is to implement "desktop scheduling" with as high
quality as technically possible.)
The CFS patch against v2.6.21.1 (or against v2.6.20.10) can be
downloaded from the usual place:

Excellent. I've switched machines here, so my "old" single-core 2GHz notebook
is no longer being used as much. The new machine is a more or less identical
notebook, but with a 2.1GHz Core2Duo CPU.
And.. man, the mainline scheduler really sucks eggs on the dual-core!
On single core it was nearly always "nice" enough for me,
but wow.. what a degradation with the extra CPU.
So, CFS is now a permanent add-on for kernels I use here on either machine,
and I also can say that it works GGGGGGGRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTT!!!
(please excuse the North American excuse for a "cultural" reference). ;)
