    For those interested, the AUR package is

    scx-scheds

    It appears you can change the scheduler on the fly so I will definitely try it. There are more schedulers available as well.

    There’s a comment in the article that says you can improve performance drastically, hard to believe but we will see.

      (e)BPF’s sched_ext allows dynamically loading schedulers from user space, yes.

        You do need a kernel with the sched-ext kernel option. Trying to install it right now.

            It’s not in the mainline, you need to either install the cachyos repo or compile the kernel with patches.
