No, the 2.4.19-ck9 that I have (the default?) include -AA and preemption (!!!)

Preemption is for several months the clear throughput winner for me.
Latest 2.4.19-ck9 and now 2.5.46-mm1.

I know you all "hate" dbench but 2.5.45/2.5.46-mm1 halved (!!!) my "dbench 32"
numbers. deadline IO is so GREAT.

2.4.19-ck5: ~55-60 seconds
2.5.46-mm1: ~31-45 seconds (even under VM pressure)

Only one MP3 playback hiccup during "dbench 32" and nearly no slowdown of
dbench.

2.5.45+ need some more memory during my normal workload and do little more
swap than 2.4.19+AA.
