How to switch scheduler on 7.0?

[Daniel Tourde]

Hi Robert,

The expression "terrible performances" was maybe not the best way to express 
myself. My intentions were not to step on anyone's toe or being nasty. Sorry 
about that.

To describe things shortly, the problem is responsiveness. I have been running 
FreeBSD since 4.7 and never experienced what I am experiencing now:
- Bad responsiveness of the desktop
- Temporary freeze (10 to 30s)
- Slow mouse (and not a very smooth movement, a kind of 'step by step')
etc.
