SRU Justification: Impact: Audio and Video artifacts while system is under load, such as with trackerd or updatedb.
Fix Description: The 8.04 scheduler algorithm selected for x86/x86_64 -generic is USER_SCHED. CGROUP_SCHED is much better at load leveling between process groups. The -server flavour has used CGROUP_SCHED from the beginning and has been shown to not have this issue.

As another user (root) run 'find / -type f | xargs grep foobar'. Audio clicks and pops can be heard in some cases. -- Kernel should use CONFIG_FAIR_CGROUP_SCHED https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/188226 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
