Playing around with it a little:
EEVDF EVDF
slice 30000000 slice 30000000
# Min Latencies: 00014 # Min Latencies: 00048
# Avg Latencies: 00692 # Avg Latencies: 188239
# Max Latencies: 94633 # Max Latencies: 961241
slice 3000000 slice 3000000
# Min Latencies: 00054 # Min Latencies: 00055
# Avg Latencies: 00522 # Avg Latencies: 00673
# Max Latencies: 41475 # Max Latencies: 13297
slice 300000 slice 300000
# Min Latencies: 00018 # Min Latencies: 00024
# Avg Latencies: 00344 # Avg Latencies: 00056
# Max Latencies: 20061 # Max Latencies: 00860
So while it improves the short slices, it completely blows up the large
slices -- utterly slaughters the large slices in fact.
And all the many variants of BIAS_ELIGIBLE that I've tried so far only
manage to murder the high end while simultaneously not actually helping
the low end -- so that's a complete write off.
By far the sanest option so far is PLACE_SLEEPER -- and that is very
much not a nice option either :-(
