> MRG is a redhat product for Messaging/Realtime/Grid. They've packaged all this together for use with financial applications, but its only the realtime bit which has most use for scientific applications (possibly messaging).

> We manually patched CentOS 5 with the realtime kernel (i.e. without this RPM) and did some speed trials. Generally, it works very well, although not 100% deterministic/guaranteed.

> The trial machine was a dual Xeon X5550 2.66GHz (8 CPU cores). Without the RT kernel, we averaged 1ms thread wakeup/latency. With the RT kernel, this dropped to typical 5uS latency, but with occasional 'spikes' up to 60uS. I suspect these spikes are due to the processors NMI/SSI interrupts kicking in, which there is little the kernel can do about.

> The real killer test was running again with Hyperthreading enabled. This gives a total 16 virtual CPU's. Without RT, latency was 1.04mS. With RT this dropped to 8uS average, but spiking up to 134uS.
