#7606: Stride scheduling for Haskell threads with priorities ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: ezyang | Owner: ezyang Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Runtime System | Version: 7.7 Keywords: | Os: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase: Blockedby: | Blocking: Related: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by simonpj): Can you also say a bit more about * What the goal of this change is. * Roughly how the new scheduling algorithm achieves the goal. * There seems to be something about priorities involved. Who sets those priorities? The programmer? The runtime system? * What about priority inversion?
