Up till now i haven't read the interview with Linus.

It is interesting, he mentiones a lesson to learn from Microsoft: "'Well, historically, the most important lesson from Microsoft - and one they themselves seem to have forgotten - is simply 'Give your customers what they want'." But as i see all the discussion here that's what's _not_ being honored. People request swap prefetch, it wouldn't be hard to give it to them but they probably won't get it (or it takes a 5 days, 200+ messages discussion(in the ck list alone were already 190 messages posted about this)). Give the people plugshed so everyone can happily be using SD instead of CFS - no way! There sure are more examples to be given.
