65	  This option enables a tickless system: timer interrupts will
66	  only trigger on an as-needed basis both when the system is
67	  busy and when the system is idle.

74	  This option enables high resolution timer support. If your
75	  hardware is not capable then this option only increases
76	  the size of the kernel image.
