hi all !

I have heard of the new CPU scheduler in kernel 2.6.22 and up. (The
Completely Fair Scheduler)
link:
http://kerneltrap.org/node/8059

What effects it can have on Emulation and Virtualization in general
and on VirtualBox specifically ?

Additionally, now after 2.6.21 kernel released with tickless timers,
how it will affect virtualization in general and VirtualBox in
particular?
