=> Here is a top's snapshot from a dual CPU machine. Two lame encoders
=> compete for the first CPU, while the total idle time is 35.6%. Why is
=> that? Because they are nice? Is niceness really supposed to allow for

=You're probably using SCHED_ULE? Try with 4BSD.
Yes, I do. But is not SCHED_ULE considered a _better_ replacement for
SCHED_4BSD -- _especially_ on SMP systems (such as mine)?
Or is it now known to be problematic and (semi-) stable installations
should use 4BSD?
Thanks!
