[Freeswitch-users] Linux Kernel Options

What Hardware is it?

One note is that the 3.2 kernel has drastically improved support for the
sandybridge so if you have an i-series intel, you might want to give it a
try.  We have run into issues with the kernel going wonky for minutes at a
time on a 2.6.28 build.

At late 2.6 or greater, you don't need to worry about tickless or hz
because it supports timerfd which replaces the need for those.
I think preemption is a good choice but it works either way.
