Well, Jeff had a spurt of activity just before Christmas in which he
corrected some issues relating to scheduling, and also committed a visual
scheduling analysis tool that is both (a) quite neat, and (b) intended to
help him measure and optimize scheduling.  However, he's not been seen
since then, so perhaps he went on vacation for a few weeks.  From
conversations with him, it sounded like he would be investing a
substantial mount of time on the SMP VFS locking work, and also on
SCHED_ULE.
