Generally speaking, we try to make the standard kernel in experimental (currently linux-image-3.8-trunk-amd64) work well for desktop systems. If you find that kernel working poorly in some scenario and a different configuration improves it, I'd like to hear so we can work on fixing it. > If not, is there a way to automatically recompile and install the > linux image with the desired configurations (e.g. HZ=1000) I hope that HZ=1000 doesn't improve much. Modern kernels are built with NO_HZ=Y, so the main effect of that setting is to change the granularity of msleep. 250 Hz = 4 ms per tick. If you would like to build a kernel with a custom configuration to test, see http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ch-common-tasks.html Hope that helps, Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
