Process scheduling in Linux

Has anyone tried experimenting with the different scheduling algorithms
available in Linux? I was thinking about maybe applying the RR-algorithm
to the BF2 servers in order to make them more responsive and real-time
oriented than the default scheduling algorithm. Also, perhaps applying
affinity to CPUs may enhance performance, especially for NUMA systems
(Opteron). Anyone with experience in this field? Are there any downsides
to doing this?
