Public Sticky notes
Linux 2.6.0 has made significant improvements in the processor scheduler
in the 2.6.0 release. Not only are processes scheduled more efficiently,
but the scheduler has been redesigned to be more scalable when the
number of processes in a machine are increased. In 2.4, the
scaling is not as prominent.

The hackbench test is a benchmark for measuring the performance, overhead, and
scalability of the Linux scheduler. Created by Rusty Russell, it uses client
and server processes grouped to send and receive data in order to simulate
the connections established for a chat room. Each client sends a message to
each server in the group.
