I've been playing with it for a while and, from what I've seen until date, I must say it makes X feel smooth (even when X not reniced, although I've reniced it to -20). However, it still feels a little bit slower when forking new processes under heavy load. I'll do some benchmarking and will post numbers here. Thanks!
