Use a sched_yield that scales well by default, this should help with JVM or applications with huge lock contention in the current libpthread, but it will hurt interactivity of those apps if there's some background load. For OpenOffice and/or KDE set the sysctl back to 0, you don't mind if sched_yield doesn't allow the colliding-workloads to scale well. The scale-behaviour is also the preferred one for all sched_yield usages in the kernel. Over time nothing should call sched_yield() anymore, this is an hack for now. - "local users can obtain full privileges" exploit (CAN-2003-0127) - some rmap VM merge errors in v4.0s-pre releases - annoying bug where opening a new xterm/aterm/$whatever term will pause a video playing for a second - annoying bug where calling "mailq from sendmail" will also pause a video playing for a second - Error out for the case of a gcc-2.96 compiler with CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER set.
