Is "options HZ=" safe on the sparc64 platform?

[Tillman]

Howdy,

I'd like to bump my HZ up to 1024 on my ultra 5 in order to smooth out
dummynet. I seem to recall that at least one non-Intel platform (Alpha,
I believe) uses a higher HZ value by default ... which lead me to wonder
if changing it on the sparc64 platform is a safe thing to do :-)

I'm using -CURRENT (uname -a is 5.1-CURRENT FreeBSD 5.1-CURRENT #1: Fri
Jun 20 16:20:42 CST 2003) on an Ultra 5, with an onboard hme and a
4-port hme card. Any information on HZ values, especially with how they
relate to dummynet, is greatly appreciated.
