[LARTC] 2.6 Kernel: Packet Scheduler Clock source??

[Robert Walker]

Hi all,

What is best setting for the 2.6.11 Kernel configuration option:
Packet scheduler clock source
???
I have had it set at:
X 'Timer interrupt'

which understand is now 1000/second for the 2.6 kernel.

Would it make any difference to my setup (e.g. rate estimation
accuracy) if I changed this to:
X 'CPU cycle counter'
How exactly does this option work for the lay person (such as myself
:-) not familar with the guts of the X86 architecture??

The kernel is running on a PC-based router with a MB with ACPI support
enabled and an Athlon XP Thunderbird 2000+ processor.

Thanks

Robert
