LINUX LITE HIGH PERFORMANCE CUSTOM KERNELS
----------------
Linux Lite ships with a custom kernel built specifically for desktop and gaming use on everyday hardware. It is based on the latest Ubuntu kernel source and incorporates a curated set of patches from the community, alongside targeted configuration improvements.
The Two Kernels
linuxlite — default desktop kernel
This is what every Linux Lite installation boots into. It prioritises a smooth, responsive desktop experience for everyday tasks: web browsing, office work, media playback, and general use.
linuxlite-gaming — optional gaming kernel
This kernel goes further in reducing input lag and improving frame delivery. It is best suited to users who play games regularly or run audio/video production software where timing matters. It can be installed at any time after setup without removing the default kernel.
Both kernels take advantage of the EEVDF scheduler. On top of this, both kernels include the full BORE scheduler modification (Burst-Oriented Response Enhancer).
BORE tracks each task’s burst time — how long it runs in short, intense bursts — and uses this to bias scheduling decisions. Tasks that have been waiting and then run in short bursts (like a desktop application repainting its window or a game processing a frame) receive a priority boost, keeping interactive work feeling snappy even under heavy background load. BORE is controlled by a dedicated CONFIG_SCHED_BORE kernel option and exposes several sysctl tunables under kernel.sched_bore for fine-tuning.
The two kernels differ in how aggressively they allow the scheduler to interrupt running work:
- linuxlite uses dynamic preemption, which balances throughput and responsiveness. It can switch between modes at runtime.
- linuxlite-gaming uses full preemption, which allows the kernel to interrupt almost any running task immediately. This reduces the worst-case delay before a game or audio application gets CPU time.
These kernels also ship with a new application - Lite Kernel Manager which has all of the features shown below:

There are so many kernel optimisations that we've had to create to full web pages explaining all the features.

and:
https://mityer.khdlhfjijfrupr.tk/linux-lite-k...rison.html
Benchmarking
Lite Kernel Manager also features a benchmarking tool where people can upload their scores. This should present a unique opportunity for people to squeeze every ounce of performance out of their Kernel tuned systems.
