What about something that tries to get the best of both worlds? How about a
tickless system that has a max frequency for how often it will schedule? This
would give the tickless advantage for big iron running many lightly loaded
virtual instances, but have some kind of cap on the overhead under heavy load.
Does this sound feasable?
