Anyway, I typed 'set' to see what HZ was set to, it was set to 100,
but I figured the environment variable might be wrong. Playing around
in /proc/ I found that there was an interrupt going off 1000 times a
second, so I figured it was probably HZ=1000.
My understanding is that HZ is set to 100 in userspace, to avoid
breaking some userspace programs. It's not the same HZ value that is
used in the kernel source in 2.6.
