How about backporting the CFS ? Anyone knows if they did ?

Shouldn't be difficult - AFAICT there have only been 2 changes to the scheduler since rc8, one of which is a one-liner.

Well, they'd need to integrate to 2.6.22, but still, it's not a huge patch. Maybe they'll do it in the backports repository, I'll ask around, Thanks!

BTW, this is the patch they'd need I think ...
