I just posted an updated version of the multi-queue scheduler
for the 2.4.0 kernel.  This version also contains support for
realtime tasks.  The patch can be found at:

http://lse.sourceforge.net/scheduling/

Here are some very preliminary numbers from sched_test_yield
(which was previously posted to this (lse-tech) list by Bill
Hartner).  Tests were run on a system with 8 700 MHz Pentium
III processors.
