The 2.2.12 scheduler has a buggy heuristics. It's not buggy in the sense
that it can Oops but part of it make no sense at all and such parts will
impact performances.
I rewrote the heuristics in my way and my patch is included into the 2.3.x
series.
You can use my SMP scheduler heuristics in 2.2.12 applying this patch:
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/andrea/kernel-patches/my-2.2.12/SMP-scheduler-2.2.11-E
It goes fine on the top of 2.2.13pre14 or similars. It's completly stable.
