To paraphrase a quote of Buckminster Fuller (Whole Earth Catalogue?), every now
and then, you should burn your idols and find new ones. Living with -ck has been
an absolutely fabulous experience, but burn baby burn, all hail RSDL.

I've been giving it a bit of caning building a mythtv box, running overly
paralleled kernel, qt3 and mythtv builds. Lots of them, almost 24/7 for days and
days, with lots of rebooting. With all that going on, and with less than modern
hardware, it was always responsive to X, keyboard and mouse. Slowly, rsdl became
the automatic choice (much like a prior discusser (discussor?)). From there it
permeated to the workstation, and I've quickly learned to live without
SCHED_IDLEPRIO and SCHED_ISO. I do quite like RSDL.

And another thing, in an interview, Eric Clapton replied to a question with
something like "... I really hate doing these things, like this interview ...
I've got far more important things I could be doing with my time, like tickling
children". I'd say let it burn, RSDL is good. All hail RSDL.

cheers, Cal
