A comparison between a standard Arch and an Ubuntu lowlatency kernel of
a few other things that come to mind on the fly:

[rocketmouse@email-addr-hidden ~]$ uname -r
4.4.1-2-ARCH
[rocketmouse@email-addr-hidden ~]$ zgrep THREADING_DEFAULT /proc/config.gz
[rocketmouse@email-addr-hidden ~]$ grep THREADING_DEFAULT /mnt/moonstudio/boot/config-4.2.0-27-lowlatency
CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING_DEFAULT=y
[rocketmouse@email-addr-hidden ~]$ zgrep Q_DEFAULT_GOV /proc/config.gz
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE is not set
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_POWERSAVE is not set
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_USERSPACE is not set
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_ONDEMAND=y
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_CONSERVATIVE is not set
[rocketmouse@email-addr-hidden ~]$ grep -i Q_DEFAULT_GOV /mnt/moonstudio/boot/config-4.2.0-27-lowlatency
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE=y
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_POWERSAVE is not set
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_USERSPACE is not set
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_ONDEMAND is not set
# CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_CONSERVATIVE is not set
[rocketmouse@email-addr-hidden ~]$ zgrep NO_HZ /proc/config.gz
CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=y
CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE=y
# CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL is not set
# CONFIG_NO_HZ is not set
[rocketmouse@email-addr-hidden ~]$ grep NO_HZ /mnt/moonstudio/boot/config-4.2.0-27-lowlatency
CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=y
CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE=y
# CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL is not set
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y
