It was choosen a french word NRJ = ENERGJ from here, nrjQL > http://mib.pianetalinux.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=3463 you find a link to first NRJ Kernel that is in item 2>
2> MIB NRJ enabled flavours You can read something about > http://mib.pianetalinux.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=3244 search and read the text in the LEGENDA: , in the bottom of the page, there is a nice explaination and now, you can ask: why a french sound name? we searched a small nickname (2 to 4 chars max) the history of name start with the proposal of this name by Dago68 (from MontPellier), other name were proposed, at the end the most of MIB people liked NRJ amongst the another proposals there was kernel-viagra, but this was rejected... that word should means acting for a PC like an energetic drink do for a human being, like a RED BULL, but we can NOT adopt that name... or another with registered name in this case, when PC is very stressed by the tasks and with a very slow response..., NRJ try to offer the missing ENERJ to your PC, with NRJ the PC behaves faster, more responsive for a better multitasking experience http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preemption_(computing) firstly NRJ enable the CPU Preemption, then it enable also RCU Preempt tree http://www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/RCU/whatisRCU.html and some further kernel keys, everything to obtain a better feeling close to realtime... Techinically speaking: With the "NRJ" configs the CPU and RCU are configured with full >> Preemption tree enabled and in full Boost mode Il Lunedì 18 Novembre 2013 15:03, Raphaël Jadot <[email protected]> ha scritto: What means NRJ by the wày?
