Steven Barrett has released Liquorix Linux Kernel 7.1-16, which merges upstream Linux v7.1.10 with improvements from Project-C focused on stability and jitter reduction, particularly for interactive workloads like gaming and audio production. This version does not introduce major new features but instead provides reliability fixes and refines existing scheduler optimizations. The kernel is available exclusively for AMD64 systems through a straightforward installer, aligning security modules with major distributions while maintaining compatibility with TuxOnIce. As a non-LTS branch, users will need to consider future upgrades, but this release is tailored for those seeking low-latency performance on their desktops

Liquorix Linux Kernel 7.1-16 Drops Linux 7.1.10 Merge with Project-C Refinements

Steven Barrett has released Liquorix kernel 7.1-16, merging upstream Linux v7.1.10 with ongoing Project-C scheduler optimizations and standard security hardening. The update focuses on stability and incremental jitter reduction rather than introducing major new features, keeping the kernel tuned for interactive workloads like gaming and audio production. Available exclusively for AMD64 systems via a one-liner installer, the release builds on previous iterations by refining threading defaults and aligning Linux Security Modules with major distributions. While the non-LTS 7.1 tree means eventual upgrades are necessary, enthusiasts targeting low-latency desktop performance will find another reliable, polished iteration in the project's long-running track.
