You won't get a lot of help from the open source
community if you
insist on loading proprietary kernel modules. The FIRST thing you
should do if you're trying to optimize your system is don't load any
binary only kernel modules!!!
To be honest, I do not really need the capabilities of the binary
driver, but using the nv driver instead causes the fonts to be very
huge on my desktop and less colour depth so watching imgaes and
gradients isn't as joyful as it can be.
The problem on notebooks is that you have no choice in the hardware
components :( .
But anyway, it's a good hint and I'll try out if latency decreases when
switching the nvidia driver off as well as the NIC.
Best regards
