:The boxes I'm responsible for here, for example, aren't under the kind
:of load (qualitatively or quantitatively) that the shellN boxes at BEST
:(Hi, Matt!) are, for example. (I consider this A Good Thing.) And the
:workload of one box may well differ from that of another; this is
:intentional.

I did a huge amount of playing around with FreeBSD's scheduler back
in the 'early days' of BEST ( we were actually running FreeBSD for a bit
before we made the SGI blunder ). In those days, our two shell machines
were running at a constant load of 15 or more.
I tried all sorts of stuff, but none of it performed significantly better
then the existing scheduler. And, as cpu speeds started to increase,
it became less and less of an issue.
