heh. Evil plan to enable the group scheduler by default worked out as
planned! ;-) [guess how many container users would do ... interactivity
tests like you do??]

'very very nice' == 'best ever' ? :-)

ok, i'm too seeing some sort of latency weirdness with
CONFIG_FAIR_GROUP_SCHED enabled, _if_ there's Xorg involved which runs
under root uid on my box - and hence gets 50% of all CPU time.

Srivatsa, any ideas? It could either be an accounting buglet (less
likely, seems like the group scheduling bits stick to the 50% splitup
nicely), or a preemption buglet. One potential preemption buglet would
be for the group scheduler to not properly preempt a running task when a
task from another uid is woken?
