First, thanks to Kevin for the quick response to the 'minor' problem
that zaptel had with 2.6.13 kernels.

Interestingly in the kernel config you can now change the timer
frequency. According to the help messages

100 HZ is a typical choice for servers, SMP and NUMA systems
with lots of processors that may show reduced performance if
too many timer interrupts are occurring.

250 HZ is a good compromise choice allowing server performance
while also showing good interactive responsiveness even
on SMP and NUMA systems.

1000 HZ is the preferred choice for desktop systems and other
systems requiring fast interactive responses to events.


It will be interesting to see how this works with *.


Anyone else trying 2.6.13?
