Sorry for some unclearance . I actually mean how much processes Linux able to
run during one single second . As far as I remember this is 100 context switches
(i.e. maximum of 10ms for each process) for x86 family and 10000 context switches
(i.e. maximum of 0.1ms for each process) for Alpha . I don't remember where I've read
this , so if this is incorrect - just let me know . 

Best wishes,
Mike.
