Try this with and without the o(1) scheduler (J0).
Create a dir full of 1 meg or so jpegs. Fire up kde. Try using the Tools/Create image gallery. With the standard scheduler linux is unusable - it stalls for most of the processing time for each image. With o(1) its just a little jerky - still usable though (a gallery is building as I type this).
Xmms playing to a arts server running with real time priority experienced no dropouts during the process.
This is on 2.4.17 no preempt or low latency patches applied.
Real improvement - nice work,
