:would you advise setting this in the sysctl for systems without the

Yes, you should be able to set this to 1 or 0 in systems without
the patch for the same effect. Feel free to experiment. This won't
get you the second part of the patch which adjusts how much the
parent process is docked for a fork() but that isn't as big a deal
as reducing the decay value.
