Hi,
Jokes aside the kernel in 15.1 switched to CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY a month ago. That setting is supposed to find a better balance between desktop performance and throughput on servers.
So I wonder if beta testers of 15.1 noticed any difference? Was there a change in power consumption for example?
Don't wait upgrading to 15.1 until the release, there are only a few weeks left to get fixes in!

of course the switch is nice to have, yet i wonder if having a -desktop kernel back (with the distinguished roles in the installer) would be an option, to tune it even more for an improved user experience. Seasoned users can switch between -default and -desktop by choosing the right kernel package (or even install them side by side and boot the right bootloader entry). Just an idea :) Greetings, Tobias -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
