Hello,

great! So it seems -v8 does improve OpenGL handling too :-)

What are your thoughts/plans concerning merging CFS into mainline ? Is
it a bit premature to get it into 2.6.22 ? I remember Linus was ok to
change the default scheduler rapidly (the discussion was about sd at
that time) to get more testing than in -mm.

It would seem that a number of us are testing the variants and reporting results (I now have to pull all the new versions and redo stuff, but I have a new test I'm going to run as well).

Given that and the fact that there is another idea which can be tested from Tong Li, I think that decision can be postponed, Linus willing. There appear to be enough testers to be driving evolution now, authors may disagree, of course.
