In fact that depends on the number of CPUs on the system
:sysctl_sched_latency = 6ms * (1 + ilog(ncpus)) . On a 8 cores system,
normal task will run around 12ms in one shoot and the idle task still
one tick period

Also, you can increase even more the period between 2 runs of idle
task by using cgroups and min shares value : 2
