Subjectsched: RT throttling activated, 3.12.3
I just upgraded a system from a 3.5 kernel to 3.12.3 and attempted to run some 
new benchmarks on it. I see my test program ramps up in CPU usage for a few
seconds and then it gradually tails off. There's nothing obvious in the user
code to trigger this behavior, so I check dmesg, and see this:

[ 55.037057] JFS: nTxBlock = 8192, nTxLock = 65536

Why is the kernel throttling my server?
