That's a very subjective viewpoint. Realize that this is a balancing act between latency and overhead ... and you're firmly only looking at one side of the argument, instead of taking a comprimise in the middle ... If I start arguing for 100HZ on the grounds that it's much more efficient, will that make 250/300 look much better to you? ;-) M. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
