Very weird. Is this on UP or SMP? I'm still working on a couple of issues with ule. I think I am very happy with the dynamic priority selection now but in the process the slice size selection got kinda dirty. Its pretty much bug for bug compatible with the old scheduler's context switching decisions but the errors there are more serious with this design. I also think the max slice size is way too high now. I was experimenting with that and I accidentally checked it in. I think I know what the remaining problems are. I'll make a post on current@ when they're all sorted out. Thanks for testing!
