-ck patchset

When I start to notice that there is a patchset which can optimize the linux desktop, I found this -ck patchset stops updating after 2.6.22.

The -ck patchset is maintained by Mr. Con Kolivas who is one of the kernel developers. Apparently, they have different opinions for developing CPU scheduler and so on in the mainline linux kernel. Well, the kernel right now is stable, it's going to be more robust. Any experimental designs won't be merged to the mainline until they will not crash. Even the codes could speed up the reading/writing on IO, the response time of CPU, etc. (The same problem for Reiser4.) So, the thing is if you're going to have a PC for services, maybe you don't like your server easily died with no reason. It really depends on what's the purpose for your computer.
