sure, feel free to experiment with those details. But if you want to improve Java workloads then you should probably start by converting them to futexes instead of sched_yield(), that will probably give far more performance than micro-optimizing the sys_sched_yield() codepath. (especially when it happens at the expense of other workloads, which is not acceptable for mainline) You can rebuild your JVM easily and re-test with its locking fixed, right?
