Subjectlowlatency-2.2.13-A1 questions

The udelay_resched(n) macro does not seem to reference "n",
would the following be an acceptable implementation?

#define udelay_resched(n) (\
{ int i; \
for (i = 0; i < ((n+9)/10); i++) { \
conditional_schedule(); \
udelay(10); \
} \
})

---------

I have been using the lowlatency-2.2.10-N6B.patch with good results.
I recently installed the 2.2.13 kernel and applied the lowlatency-2.2.13-A1
patch, however the results were not quite as good. The 2.2.10-N6B patch
on the 2.2.10 kernel gave +/-500usec scheduling latencies whereas
the 2.2.13-A1 patch on the kernel gave +/-3msec latencies. Any idea
why? These results were obtained on a Pentium III 500MHz.

How were the high latency areas identified? I would be very happy
to help in testing and contributing to this patch.
