Heh that scheduler thing again... and unfortunately Col appearing to feel
hurt while I am think that Ingo is honest on his offer on collaboration...

While it makes fun playing with that numbers and indeed experiencing
subjectively a more fluid deskopt how about just a

echo "This is a f* desktop!" > /proc/sys/kernel/sched_workload

Or to say it in other words: The Linux kernel should not require me to
fine-tune three or more values to have the scheduler act in a way that
matches my workload.

I am willing to test stuff on my work thinkpad and my Amarok thinkpad in
order to help improving with that.
