I use SCHED_ULE on all machines, since it is supposed to be performing

If you are using MPI in numerical codes, then you want
to use SCHED_4BSD. ?I've posted numerous times about ULE
and its very poor performance when using MPI.

It is rather funny to see that the post you point out has generated
exactly 0 meaningful follow-up then and as you mention later in this
thread, the issue still remains today :-)
[/sarcasm]

Apparently, you are privy to my private email exchanges
with jeffr.

I'm also not sure why you're being sarcastic here.  The
issue was and AFAIK still is a problem for anyone using
FreeBSD in a HPC cluster.  ULE simply performs worse than
4BSD.

Well, I know only very little people using FreeBSD within a HPC cluster
or even for scientific purposes, except myself and some people around here.

The problem is not only related to desktop boxes, it involves servers with "big" hardware as well.
