I recently upgraded from 5.4 to 6.0 and noticed the introduction of
option SCHED_ULE for supporting multi-processor environments.

However, I understood that using SCHED_ULE with only one CPU can also
improve performance significantly.

Is this true, and if so, what are the risks involved dropping good old
SCHED_4BSD for the new-and-improved scheduler?

Thanks alot in advance.
