oh, great! I'm glad we didnt discard this as a pure sched_clock resolution artifact. Roman, a quick & easy request: please send the usual cfs-debug-info.sh output captured while your testcase is running. (Preferably try .23-rc3 or later as Mike did, which has the most recent scheduler code, it includes the patch i sent to you already.) I'll reply to your sleeper-fairness questions separately, but in any case we need to figure out what's happening on your box - if you can still reproduce it with .23-rc3.
