I found some kernel images optimized for core 2 and later processsors. There are also some interactivity related improvements in this image.
I thought someone might find them useful. Comments/suggestions welcome :)
Wow, nice, thanks for sharing that info :) I take a quick look, seems like that kernel is patched with Con Kolivas patchset too.. which is also nice IMHO...since -ck is known to be a desktop friendly by lowering latency and increasing interactivity. BTW, swappiness=0? that means, hardly swap out IIRC. It can be good but it can be bad too IMO... during tight memory situation, it will cause paging do a lot that neccessary. I think better to make it 10 or 20, so paging out could be started right after it hits certain threshold. -- regards, Mulyadi Santosa Freelance Linux trainer and consultant blog: the-hydra.blogspot.com training: mulyaditraining.blogspot.com
