SubjectOptimizing scheduling policies for Ubuntu (desktop), for low-jitter.
Date
From
Hi.

I have made a little script, optimizing Ubuntu abit. If you have any good
and relevant information, reasonable arguments, please post them.

Do note this script is something I have quickly made, and can probably be
improved. Feedback from experienced desktop-optimizers is appreciated. The
point is to get waiting due to suboptimal policies out. Making the desktop
as responsive as it can be.

What it does for the time being, is set X to realtime, so that it`s
singlethreadedness does not become a performance bottleneck. And all
daemons to idle pri. Also idle pri, would ofcourse work best, if they are
queued in a way separately, from normal apps, so they don`t all kick in at
once. (and cause jitter)

Peace Be With You.

Please CC me.

it perform the best.
