The change isn't just meant to be limited to 1 app. However, nobody
has nominated any other app for switching to sisched yet. This is the
first official nomination for sisched in the history of the driver. It
will hopefully inspire other people to make more nominations. If you
want better overall performance, you have to start somewhere.
