Re: Merged ruby patch...

[James v. Z. <ja...@dv...>]

Tuxracer ran quite well on two desktops, but I have this thing called
"verynice process renicer daemon" running, and I suspect this is why. So
I tried something a little heavier - quake3 demo. This did demonstrate
considerable "choppiness".

Same kernel without the staircase scheduler :

I haven't tested this one with games...but it drives my server which
utilises ruby to provide one linux console and one vmware console.
