No, but it helps some when running two un-pinned busy loops, one at nice
0, and the other at nice 19. Yesterday I hit latencies of up to 1.2
_seconds_ doing this, and logging sched_debug and /proc/`pidof
Xorg`/sched from SCHED_RR shells.

se.wait_max : 164.242748
se.wait_max : 121.996128
se.wait_max : 194.464773
se.wait_max : 517.425411
se.wait_max : 131.453214
se.wait_max : 122.984190
se.wait_max : 111.729274
se.wait_max : 119.567580
se.wait_max : 126.980696
se.wait_max : 177.241452
se.wait_max : 129.604329
se.wait_max : 119.631657

It doesn't help at all with this oddity while running same:

root@Homer: now is
the time
foooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooor aall good men to come to the aid of their country

That was a nice 0 shell window. I'm not a great typist, but I ain't
_that_ bad :)
