Just to throw another possibly-overlooked variable into the mess:
My system here is using the on-demand cpufreq policy governor. I wonder how that interacts with the various schedulers here? I suppose for the "make" kernel case, after a couple of seconds the cpufreq would hit max and stay there for the rest of the build, so it shouldn't really be a factor for (non-)interactivity during the build. Or should it?
