Subject: [RFC tg_shares_up improvements - v1 07/12] sched: add sysctl_sched_shares_window
Date: Fri, 15 Oct 2010 21:43:56 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101016045118.984362327@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20101016044349.830426011@google.com
[-- Attachment #1: sched-tg-add-shares_window_sysctl.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2295 bytes --]
Introduce a new sysctl for the shares window and disambiguate it from
sched_time_avg.
A 10ms window appears to be a good compromise between accuracy and performance.
