New comment by q66 on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/18940#issuecomment-583864913 Comment: I was never able to see much of a difference in responsiveness between `PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY` and `PREEMPT` tbh. BTW, the non-x86 kernels are generally configured to use `PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY` (with 250 Hz tick, 100 for aarch64) already. Also when I was configuring the PowerPC kernels, it turned out that using `PREEMPT` results in the kernels not booting at all on a fair amount of machines... that said, I'm not seeing any responsiveness issues on those either.
