Before I went on holiday I had followed in Charles' footsteps to build preempt-rt kernels and test them on several Intel and AMD boards. The latencies I got weren't very good (although not wildly out of line with oasdl postings) and certainly not as good as Charles got with his particular boards. So far, I have been utterly unable to make any substantial difference "tuning". Does a systematic tuning process exist? So far all I have is the usual laundry list of "try this..." suggestions.
