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.
