100 will give better overall resource utilization
and allow the system to get slighly more work done,
1000 OTOH, will increase responsiveness and reduce
latencies slightly, for the cost of slightly higher
overhead from the task switching ...

usually 100 is more than fine for non interactive
systems and up to 50 guests, but you might want to
raise that to 250 or even 1000 for 100 and more
guest systems ...

[Vserver] best timer freq to use?

2007-06-14 Thread Chuck
also, have the vserver systems been tuned around a certain timer frequency?

100? or 1000? or in between somewhere? for best efficiency still allowing 
remote terminal responsiveness under extremely heavy loads?
