In light of your message, I was provoked to switched my workstation at work to using the sched_ule thread scheduler. I do not have remote access set up via a graphical interface, so I can not test anything yet as far as KDE is concerned. However, I have noticed a performance increase with an ssh session into my workstation. Whether this is psychological or not, I doubt as I have become sensitive over the years to network speed. I am running on a dual Pentium III system: duane# grep CPU /var/run/dmesg.boot CPU: Intel Pentium III (999.67-MHz 686-class CPU) FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 2 CPUs ... Nothing else has been altered from default settings as far as any make files or anything else. This was a complete install from scratch. -d
