The static definition (TASK_INTERACTIVE) used is based on what the cpu scheduler already knows about the tasks so although it's static, it is based on the dynamic behaviour and most recent sleep/run data. Unfortunately we can't define it any clearer than that. We have no better metric that states clearly that anything is definitely interactive. Thus there is no clearly defined threshold we can use either. If it was that simple the estimator would be simpler and we wouldn't have half a dozen alternative cpu schedulers available all looking to tackle much the same thing. -- -ck ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
