Subject: sched: remove HZ dependency from the granularity default
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.23-rc4~17^2~6
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=71fd37146385c8255bfd370f33ca81fe8c81e5a5;p=linux-2.6

sched: remove HZ dependency from the granularity default

remove HZ dependency from the granularity default. Use 10 msec for
the base granularity, 1 msec for wakeup granularity and 25 msec for
batch wakeup granularity. (These defaults are close to the values
that the default HZ=250 setting got previously, and thus it's the
most common setting.)
