Hi guys...

Im reading ant playing with polling and kernel..... I read that
polling increase net performance and i plan on using it... Now the
question that arises is.. is polling and performance in general
affected by the value of kern.hz? i have put in /boot.loader.con
kern.hz=50 and was wondering if this number affects the number i
choose for the polling options

I wanna recompile kernel using

options DEVICE_POLLING
 options HZ=1000

So that 1000hz how affects the system? if it affects it at all........

thanks for anyone who can give me a hint....

Cheers,
A
