Because, 
A:- I know Linux
B:- I don't know C, and my Pascal compiler is for Linux
C:- By increasing the HZ value, I can get the results I need, I just don't see
	why I should have to do it, if the kernel is doing the Right Thing(tm)
D:- I can't afford the time/money to invest into the development tools of a RTOS
	like QNX or similar.
