Description: Reduces the latency of the Linux kernel
The low-latency patch to the Linux kernel reduces its scheduling latency.
This makes the kernel more responsive, and potentially increases its
bandwidth; since threads waste less time waiting for execution. It is
compatible with the preemptible patch.
.
It can be applied to the following kernel sources:
2.4.17, 2.4.18, 2.4.19, 2.4.20, 2.4.21, 2.4.22, 2.4.23, 2.4.24, 2.4.25,
2.4.26, 2.4.27
.

kernel-patch-2.4-lowlatency. It can be safely removed after the upgrade
has completed.
