Rechecking everything there was actually a small error in my test program,
so the ratio should be at 1:20. Sorry about that mistake.
Nice level 19 shows the largest artifacts, as that level only gets a
single tick, so the ratio is often 1:HZ/10 (except for 1000HZ where it's
5:100). Nevertheless it's still true that in general nice levels were
independent of HZ (that's all I wanted to say a couple of mails ago).
Ingo, you can start now gloating, but contrary to you I have no problems
with admitting mistakes and apologizing for them. The point is just that
I'm reacting better to factual arguments instead of flames (and I think
it's not just me), so I'm pretty sure I'm still correct about this:
bye, Roman
