What is the status of this patch?

Well, I also have mixed feelings about the tuning of these packages.

I=E2=80=99m reluctant to marking things like Chromium or OpenJDK as tunable
because they take ages to build: it=E2=80=99s more work for ci.guix (which
builds a few tuned variants of each tunable package), and possibly leads
to local recompilations for users when substitutes for their
micro-architecture are unavailable.

It=E2=80=99s also not immediately obvious to me why these two packages as w=
ell
as zlib would benefit from micro-architecture-specific optimizations.

Thoughts?

Thank you =E2=80=94 I moved the properties to the last field and moved the

The attached patch adds the (tunable? . #t) properties to additional
programs for which Clear Linux has an advantage over Ubuntu with the
same scheduler settings in a zen4 benchmark article
https://www.phoronix.com/review/zen4-clear-linux/2

This is not guaranteed to help, but the article indicates possible
gains for these packages of 5-10%.
