From cafb20c1f9976a70d633bb1e1c8c24eab00e4e80 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Piggin Date: Sat, 25 Jun 2005 14:57:17 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] sched: no aggressive idle balancing Remove the very aggressive idle stuff that has recently gone into 2.6 - it is going against the direction we are trying to go. Hopefully we can regain performance through other methods.
