Thanks, Paul for the explanation. I've heard of some problems still 
lingering in the ULE and figured, I'll stay with the BSD-scheduler for a 
while. I guess, it is time to switch.
However, what I'm seeing on my system today is evidence of the scheduler 
having a bug, rather than merely being suboptimal. If the old scheduler 
is still maintained and supposed to work (however sub-optimally) in 
4-CPU configurations, I'd expect either inquiries for more 
debug-information or assurances, that the bug is known and worked on.
In the July 26th sys/conf/NOTES file the SCHED_BSD4 is still on the 
default option....
Yours,
