Hi Ingo,

Have been watching and testing your changes as they have
evolved. Our group has a customer request for a scheduler that will give
them some tuneable parameters, and your changes have actually had
some parameters change thru the deltas you've made. It seemed like it
might be useful to take them and make them tweakable on a running
system. I am not 100% convinced of the goodness of this, but I wanted
to submit it for your consideration. The current code performs great btw,
thanks for all your hard work.

Regards,
