The initial value was 13, and I changed it to 7. Here is the time result for the ffmpeg run: 13: 1:39.09 7: 1:37.01 I also ran it with 4BSD again, as I think I recompiled ffmpeg since my previous testing. It ran in: 1:35.29 So the difference in this workload is only 2.63% when I change the slice value to 7. I will re-run my super-smack testing as well and reply with the results. > This is interesting.

I notice the trend in the graphs whenever I'm booted into the ULE kernel for long enough to see a few hours' of data.
