I've been a fan of Staircase's for a long time; it simply responded faster
and launched progs faster.

I haven't tried nicksched in a while, but it didn't perform as well as
Staircase.

Having a batched mprime torture test in the background still allows me to
play a movie in mplayer, compile a kernel, listen to a CD and browse
the web without glitches. Not that I'd normally watch a movie and listen to
a CD at the same time ;)

Going to try Nicksched again RSN to see if it handles the same load, but
still I have to say I'm mighty pleased with Staircase and the rest of
Con's patches.

(Running 2.6.8.1-cko3 with the lenient patch of -ck6 at the moment)
(This is in an Athlon 1.3GHz with 512MB of RAM and roughly the same of swap)
