Very cool.
Some comments:
Real time priority sceduling is available on linux as well. There is a
perl toolkit for doing so on
http://www.omniti.com/~george/mod_log_spread/Scheduler-Linux.tar.gz
An example of a mod_perl module to duplicate mod_log_spread
functionality might be nice if you have one (and if not, I can
contribute a perl implementation to CPAN for reference).
There are some serious idiosynchrocies when running spread in multicast
mode on Linux (i your mcast routes aren't set up correctly, your rings
will run severely degraded). Mentioning that might be nice, and/or
mentioning how to set it up in broadcast mode (which avoids those problems).
