'real time' generally means latency guarantees and trading some throughput for consistent low latency for interrupts and scheduling. So faster in some dimensions and slower in others.
The Arch Linux wiki has some description of their real time patches:

- jmiskovic 5y agoArch wiki is an amazing source of practical information. It's like graybeard forums but distilled into a readable text. My last laptop ran Mint distro; whenever I searched around for HW issues it was always their wiki, fully stocked with useful info and steps how to fix stuff.
- froh 5y ago"graybeard forums" = ?
- jmiskovic 5y agoI'm referring to the usenet, mailing lists, various issue trackers and distro-specific forums were knowledgeable people diagnose and solve problems for others. The arch wiki has some of same diagnostics/troubleshooting content in more approachable format and kept up to date. Quite a few times it pointed me in right direction even if I don't use Arch.
- froh 5y agoah so grey haired as in experienced people think John Maddog Hall. got it. thanks.
- fogihujy 5y agoYeah, I'm always amazed when I end up looking at the Arch wiki for a Debian issue, simply because the Arch wiki is more relevant and up to date.
- fierro 5y agowow thanks for calling that out. Just spent an hour browsing through it and was basically an Operating Systems refresher course. Great resource!
