Another update: This is the same testing but for cfs-v7. Summary: 1. context switch rate is much higher than for cfs-v6 for the same sched_granularity_ns 20 2. Video playback suffered. FPS is much lower. 3. Trying different values of sched-granularity_ns didn't help (neither did the default)

so SD context-switched twice as much and saturated the CPU fully, while under cfs-v6 there was 34% idle time left. That double context-switch rate and higher CPU utilization could easily result in you experiencing a 'smoother' desktop (and smoother video playback) on SD. could you try to maximize

. Under SD i haven't seen anything get starved. mainline surprisingly works better than i expected, but beryl suffers and responsiveness suffers under load. --hechacker1 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
