P.S. what does your heuristic currently look like? I was working on
i965 scheduling, and after some discussion, this is what I did:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~cwabbott0/mesa/commit/?h=i965-sched&id=2d46e424327082bbc67758d05e6e102cbcd56d89
it's called "delay" in that code for some reason instead of "depth"
(or, even better, critical path length), but you should get the
idea... choose the earliest thing we can schedule, and then among
those pick the thing with the largest depth.
