Kernel Click Scheduling

How is Click scheduled in-kernel?  The reason I ask is I have a
CPU-bound Click configuration (InfiniteSource to discard, no queuing),
and it runs 10% faster in usermode click than kernel click on the same
machine!  I'm wondering if it has to do with scheduling latencies, or if
I should be looking elsewhere.

Thanks,

- Alex
