I'm complaining about being quoted out of context and the animus against unsupported preempt claims being directed against me.
Re-stating preempt's "ostensible purpose" is the purpose of the "vague notion", not adding to the pile of speculation.
For the data, akpm has apparently tracked scheduling latency, so there is a chance he actually knows whether it's serving its ostensible purpose as opposed to having a large stockpile of overwrought wisecracks and a propensity for quoting out of context.
