Hi Ryan,
Thank for your help. But it turned out to be not working for me. I even
commented out the `startTimer` and `stopTimer` in `rts/Timer.c`, but it seems
not working as well.
For example. this program:
main = do
forkIO $ forever $ print “a”
forkIO $ forever $ print “b”
threadDelay 100000
When I added the `-threaded`, it will schedule normally, despite whether I
commented out some code or add `-V0`. When I dropped `-threaded`, the
`timerManager` stopped working as well, so it doesn’t make sense to me. Bad
luck, but thank you all the way.

Hi Zhen,
The RTS flag -V sets the tick interval (setting to 0 disables). If you grep
for `RtsFlags.MiscFlags.tickInterval` you can find where it gets used. Hope
this helps.

Hi,
I am trying to stop the GHC thread scheduler from atomically do round-robin
scheduling. It might be strange that I am asking for that, in fact, my
intention is to implement the “Lightweight Concurrency” on top of current RTS
system. I am trying to use `GHC.Event`’s timeout mechanism to interfere with
the scheduling behavior and it seems working a bit. But the automatic
scheduling at the same time by RTS renders this effort invalid.
For this part, I have tried to modify `rts/Scheduler.c`, masked some
`startTimer` in `schedule()`, change the `appendToQueue` to `pushOnQueue` in
`scheduleHandleYield` but nothing really works. (The GHC is still doing RR
scheduling, even I changed some key code I thought)
So I am curious if anyone familiar with the RTS could give me some suggestions
on this problem.
Thanks a lot!
Zhen
