AUR new brainfuck bfs scheduler archlinux install - feels fast as hell

AUR

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29842 download the tarball

pacman -S base-devel

edit /etc/makepkg.conf and set the -j to your number of cpu
for me with 1 cu hyperthreaded [2 total] this meant: MAKEFLAGS="-j2"

tar xvfzm the tarball, cd into it, do a makepkg -s --asroot, install the package with pacman -U

now carefully edit grub, adding a new (0) option and incrementing the other 2; then reboot:
# cat /boot/grub/menu.lst

It feels much faster on my p4 3.0ghz hyperthread [2 virt cpu] with 4g ram [3168m visible to os]
