Context Switching

I know that this is a relative question but can someone give me an idea of what would be considered a high number of context switches?

I am running vmstat and show a cs value of between 5000 and 6000 on a 4 processor system. How can I deduce if this number is high or not?

Also, the timeslice kernel parameter set to 1 when I know the HP default is 10. What would be the benefits or detriments to changing this value?

MooseX::Declare::Context::Namespaced(3pm)		User Contributed Perl Documentation		 MooseX::Declare::Context::Namespaced(3pm)

NAME
MooseX::Declare::Context::Namespaced - Namespaced context DESCRIPTION
This context trait will add namespace functionality to the context. ATTRIBUTES
namespace This will be set when the "strip_namespace" method is called and the namespace wasn't anonymous. It will contain the specified namespace, not the fully qualified one. METHODS
strip_namespace Maybe[Str] Object->strip_namespace() This method is intended to parse the main namespace of a namespaced keyword. It will use Devel::Declare::Context::Simples "strip_word" method and store the result in the "namespace" attribute if true. qualify_namespace Str Object->qualify_namespace(Str $namespace) If the $namespace passed it begins with a "::", it will be prefixed with the outer namespace in the file. If there is no outer namespace, an error will be thrown. SEE ALSO
