Oh, you mean Utopic's kubuntu-default-settings already has that rule? I understood it like we changed the kernel default scheduler in utopic. #1378789 does not explain the fix in utopic, nor does it have a package upload that closes the bug. I suppose this is a case where the SRU is being done on a fresh "synthetic" bug instead of the real bug report, and so it doesn't have all the relevant information. Anyway, now is not the time to change utopic's kernel default. > I outlined here some additional regression testing that I think needs to be > part of the SRU plan: > > https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-release/2014-October/003071.html *nod* thanks > As the Kubuntu team's request specifically concerns asking the TB to > expedite the SRU for this Oh, that's not how I understood it. I interpreted "proceed with the SRU" as "land it in -proposed now instead of well after Utopic's release", which I fully agree with. Of course verifying the changes will take quite some time as finding enough people with different SSD/HDD hardware and getting them to do the measurements will just not be done in a week. But then again I see no rush. 14.04 has been out for 6 months, and everyone who uses it either has learned to get along with the sluggishness or disabled balloo, or uses something else. So taking a few weeks in -proposed to be sure about the impact of this seems adequate. I wouldn't tie it to any results in Utopic, as utopic has a different kernel, different software versions etc., so the numbers aren't directly comparable anyway.
