Have others been unhappy with the way the kernel scheduler has been working? Sometimes setting a process to a nice level of 19 doesn't give it lowest priority over processes with a lower nice level.
One area I've noticed this is with Cedega (running windows games under linux). Having to emulate the windows scheduler causes issues with the linux scheduler, such that setting it to 19 actually can help performance compared to running it at the normal 0. But at 19 it's competing with DHEP, so ... :bang:
I just switched to using Suse's 9.2 kernel, and it already seems snappier than the 9.1 version, so hopefully I can use my computer to do some gaming without having to stop DHEP.
Anyone know if it's possible to suspend and then resume DHEP instead of killing it?
