Some people at work have been using RT kernels for a particular project, and they're no end of trouble. Unless you absolutely need an RT kernel, don't go anywhere near them. In particular interrrupt handling becomes a massive overhead, since every interrupt is passed to a foreground thread so that it can have a foreground linux process priority. If you do anything that uses a lot of interrupts (eg. USB) then performance plummets. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Owen Smith's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=42371 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101624 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
