Hi,
I'm running FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT with SCHED_ULE, INVARIANTS, WITNESS
enabled kernel.

When compiling something (buildworld or making wine for example) inside
from X/gnome
my computer becomes very slow.
top shows while compiling wine:

...
Is it due to SCHED_ULE makes a process CPU greedy and that is why my
computer becomes slow?
Or it is something else? What SCHED_ULE sysctl knobs should I test here?
As I recall correctly I have never experienced such problems until
recently.
Maybe I'm wrong here.
thanks,
Ganbold
