I have an application/service that has 1000 or so threads. Most of these are 
TCPIP socket accept and connect. I want to be able to run all the threads in 
a second or so to achieve a reasonable throughput. I would like the kernel 
to run 1000 threads per second. Right now I think it is set for 100 ticks 
per second in f9 x86 64bit.
