From: npiggin@suse.de Subject: disable smtnice References: 163880 Patch-mainline: obsolete SLES9 has SMT nice disabled for different reasons, but in sles10, it creates significant contention on the runq locks. Any scheduler intensive benchmark is slow with smt nice enabled. This patch turns it off.
