Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: distributed-net
The package summary says there should be no noticeable slowdown when
running the distributed.net client, however, with recent changes in the
way the Linux kernel handles process niceness, this is no longer true
(processes with nice 19 are no longer entirely preempted). The solution
is to set the real time attributes of the process with the chrt command.
This can be accomplished by changing line ~54 in /etc/init.d/distributed-net
from:
su daemon -c "$DAEMON $OPTIONS"
to
su daemon -c "chrt -b 0 $DAEMON $OPTIONS"
This changes the scheduling to batch, with the lowest priority.
** Affects: distributed-net (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
