I worked on a commercial product based on altq on which a 1KHz clock was
very useful. This used slow (400MHz) Pentium-class CPUs, and the
increase in system overhead over a 100Hz clock was approximately 2%.
Without the fast clock, accurately and consistently managing bandwidth
down to 1% slices was difficult.
We too have problems to obtain an accurate bandwidth management with
many queues (hfsc) with low bandwidth percentages (sometimes a queue
gets almost all bandwidth and other queues starve...)
Do you think that increasing clock could help?
The CPU is an Athlon 1.2 GHz, but CPU usage is quite low (85% idle time
on average). Do you think a faster CPU could help?
Thanks.
