% If nobody xxxx not to many people have objections, I would be happy to % remove the realtime & idle queue junk and replace it with the locked % priority concept. ( Cavet: the priority would only be locked while % running in user mode, I wouldn't mess with the supervisor sleep priority % override mechanism ). This would make idle processes useful again. % I would also be happy if someone else did this... but if nobody else % wants to, I can :-) Why isn't this as significant a change as Peter's changes that perhaps go a long way to fixing the problem? There is getting to be *a lot* of stuff that wants multiple realtime priorities, and it seems short sighted to just say ah crap we can't do that.
