SCHED_BATCH is handled by the CFS scheduler module too. +In case CONFIG_HZ results in base_slice_ns < TICK_NSEC, the value of +base_slice_ns will have little to no impact on the workloads. + Due to its design, the CFS scheduler is not prone to any of the "attacks" that exist today against the heuristics of the stock scheduler: fiftyp.c, thud.c, chew.c, ring-test.c, massive_intr.c all work fine and do not impact
