PATCH 2/5 adjust_timeslice_granularity

adjust_timeslice_granularity

Please include in at least one -mm release.

The minimum timeslice was decreased from 10ms to 5ms. In the process, the timeslice granularity was leading to much more rapid round robinning of interactive tasks at cache trashing levels.

Restore minimum granularity to 10ms.
