[$] The MuQSS CPU scheduler
The scheduler is a topic of keen interest for the desktop user;the scheduling algorithm partially determines the responsiveness ofthe Linux desktop as a whole. Con Kolivas maintains a series of scheduler patch setsthat he has tuned considerably over the years for his own use, focusingprimarily on latency reduction for a better desktop experience. Inearly October 2016, Kolivas updated the design of his popular desktopscheduler patch set, which he renamed MuQSS. It is an update (and a namechange) from his previous scheduler, BFS, and it is designed to addressscalability concerns that BFS had with an increasing number of CPUs.
