I retried bisect between 2.6.22 and 2.6.23-rc1. This time, I enabled CONFIG_SLAB=y,
and deleted the warmup procedure in the testing scripts. In addition, bind the 2
processes on the same logical processor. The regression is about 20% which is larger
than the one when binding 2 processes to different core.
The new bisect reported cfs core patch causes it. The results of every step look
stable.

sched: cfs core code
apply the CFS core code.
this change switches over the scheduler core to CFS's modular
design and makes use of kernel/sched_fair/rt/idletask.c to implement
Linux's scheduling policies.
thanks to Andrew Morton and Thomas Gleixner for lots of detailed review
feedback and for fixlets.
