Date: Wed, 17 Oct 2012 12:35:45 +0200 From: Uwaysi Bin Kareem Message-id: User-Agent: Opera Mail/12.02 (Linux) Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Ok, I just learned that X was singlethreaded. Setting it to realtime fifo, pri 98, fixes slowing down doom 3 (which I use for testing), when moving other windows, as that is probably due to waiting for X. Now I wonder should RCU priority boost be at 99, or below X? Probably above right? And are there other threads, that X is again waiting for, that should be above X? Peace Be With You.
