(and to take a line from Linus: my attention span is roughly that of a slightly retarded golden retriever ;) so it would be helpful if you could please re-state any questions you still have, in context of our latest CFS-devel queue. I tried to answer the error/rounding worries you had - which seemed to be the main theme of your patch. There are lots of good kernel hackers on lkml who know the new scheduler code pretty well and who might be able to provide an answer even if i dont manage to answer. (Perhaps asking the questions without heavy math will also help more people be able to understand and answer your questions and their practical relevance.) In any case - if you see packet loss on my side then please resend :) That would be hugely helpful.
