How "Real-Time" is Linux 2.6?

Viewed 8386

I am looking at moving my product from an RTOS to embedded Linux. I don't have many real-time requirements, and the few RT requirements I have are on the order of 10s of milliseconds.

Can someone point me to a reference that will tell me how Real-Time the current version of Linux is?

Are there any other gotchas from moving to a commercial RTOS to Linux?
