+rr_interval: (MuQSS CPU scheduler only)
+
+This is the smallest duration that any cpu process scheduling unit
+will run for. Increasing this value can increase throughput of cpu
+bound tasks substantially but at the expense of increased latencies
+overall. Conversely decreasing it will decrease average and maximum
+latencies but at the expense of throughput. This value is in
+milliseconds and the default value chosen depends on the number of
+cpus available at scheduler initialisation with a minimum of 6.

+Valid values are from 1-1000.
