I did that myself, so that's a non-issue.

No. The complaints were about the CK scheduler not being as responsive
under load as even the _old_ scheduler was. I don't know why people ignore
this fact. It was a long thread back in March or April, and I'm pretty
sure the CK mailing list was cc'd.

Sure, most people don't actually have load-averages above ten etc, but
it's important to do those well _too_.
