  Description     : The rteval script is a utility for measuring various aspects of realtime behavior on a system under load.

The rteval script is a utility for measuring various aspects of
realtime behavior on a system under load. The script unpacks the
kernel source, and then goes into a loop, running hackbench and
compiling a kernel tree. During that loop the cyclictest program
is run to measure event response time. After the run time completes,
a statistical analysis of the event response times is done and printed
to the screen.

This packages is useful for testing the realtime kernel.

Hi Anders,

Thank you for working on this!  I look forward to using it to further
tune my music recording setup, and to get more useful data from these
experiments.  "Does it produce xruns with smaller periods/timers
(particularly when RT-safe effects are running)" is so hardware specific
that it's hard to say anything useful.

Best,
Nicholas
