SubjectRe: HZ, preferably as small as possible

s/interrupts/scheduler calls/

But what exactly does this question mean to be? I don't fully understand.
We define HZ to have an interval for the calls of the scheduler. That's
why it is the number of scheduler calls per second, because that's what it
was invented to be.
