    Hello,

    See Robert Watson's reply to this thread. An unfortunate number of
    problems exist in threading and scheduling. Most are well-understood
    and are being worked on and 5.4 should see measurable improvement.
    Personally, I am more concerned with network and scheduler perfomance.
    I know the former is being addressed, but I don't hear anything about
    how work on SCHED_ULE is progressing.

    Regards,

    stheg
