.config 2.6.24 i386/amd64 discussions



now that both amd64 and i386 have a tickless kernel
it makes sense to enable CONFIG_HZ_1000 for both.
the current consumption is no longer a trouble and
we gain better interactive response. the timer
interrupts should no longer reduce server perf.

back in the early 2.6 game i disabled preempt,
due to strange driver bugs poping up, now that
this seems to have been cleared upstream all
major distros ship with the PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY on,
PREEMPT_BKL
