No, the second cpu is *only* running the realtime kernel (I think unless an application explictly uses it), and everything else is put on the first cpu. > I am currently running my emc on the second core 'taskset 2 emc ***.ini', > and it seems impervious to the dreaded error message, regardless as to what > else I run on the machine... > but am I safe in running this way? am I still getting realtime performance > on the core that has been isolated on bootup? > > thank you to all the contributors! You should be getting better realtime performance on that core now, since nothing else should be using it. The realtime stuff only uses one core anyhow (someone correct me if I'm wrong), but with isolcpu it gets the core to itself.
