Turns out the last patch I posted had a small compile error because I
edited it by hand to remove one section.  Here's an updated patch that
fixes that and changes the min/max slice values to something more
reasonable.  Slice min should be around 4 with a max of 12.

Also looks like 4BSD's slice handling got more precise recently as well.
jhb changed it from using a callout to an actual counter based on runtime.

ffmpeg runtime with the new patch: 1:39.09

buildworld: 13:55.689

Looks like things got a little worse with this patch. One thing of
note, the slice_min and slice values are:

kern.sched.slice_min: 5
kern.sched.slice: 13

That's expected due to the fuzzy rounding of 128 / 10, etc. Can you set slice_min and slice both equal to 7 and see if the numbers come out better than without the patch but with a slice value of 7? Basically I'm trying to isolate the effects of the different slice handling in this patch from the other changes.

Thanks,
Jeff


Did I do something wrong to cause the slice min to be 5 instead of 4
and the max to be 13 instead of 12?

Thanks,
Josh
