Package: linux-2.6 Version: 3.0.0-6 Severity: wishlist Hey,
since few versions, linux-2.6 uses an “autogroup" scheduling setting, which is supposed to improve the responsiveness, especially for desktop session. Upstream enables it by default, and there's a sysctl (kernel.sched_autogroup_enabled) to disable it in case it causes issues. Debian ships a patch (debian/patches/debian/sched-autogroup-disabled.patch) which changes the default to disabled. I'm not too sure what is the rationale for changing the default, but I think it'd be nice to revert that and keep upstream default, unless there are good reasons to divert from them.
