For what it's worth, the Amazon Linux 2 4.14.x kernel also ships with CONFIG_HZ=250. We obviously don't need to use the same settings, but that kernel specifically targets cloud deployments, and its maintainers do not see a need to set CONFIG_HZ=100. I don't know what considerations were taken into account when choosing the value for that variable at AWS. noah
