I generally recommend to use ULE on FreeBSD 7 because
it behaves better for interactive use, especially on
SMP systems (but it seems to improve interactivity on
UP systems, too).  It's not specific to this hardware.

Note that SCHED_ULE is now the default in 7-stable,
and will be the default in 7.1-RELEASE.  The change
was done shortly after 7.0-RELEASE.

Best regards
