- An Xterm needs ~30 seconds to open up while "make -j16 bzImage modules" - An Xterm needs ~15 seconds to open up while "make -j8 bzImage modules" - XMMS does _not_ skip mp3's while above. - Kmail is almost unusable while above (stops for about 5 secs every 15-20 secs). KMail is also very slow while the machine is doing nothing. - X runs with nice 0, prio 15 (nice -11 is prio 4, does not make difference)
Over all, the whole system seems in a ~snail mode.
Andrew, two things:
1. I'll test it with high job numbers, because it _must_ be possible to use that w/o any stops of xmms music, w/o X running like a dog etc. 2. I use anticipatory scheduler for sure. Best I've ever seen, never had any problems. :)
ciao, Marc
