Do you have any link or reference to the 1ms wait after each frame? Where did you come up with this?
On the Valve mailing list there was some experiments with modifying sleep() system call. Nephyrin managed to get around 30000 fps, but I remember he said the game was too fast after that.
Here's link to the thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/hlds_linux@list.valvesoftware.com/msg46646.html
Good post overall. Many users on this forum believe tickless and non-1000 Hz kernels are generally a disaster. It's good to see someone point out what the Hz really means for the system.
