Google for two things - firstly Rik van Riel's bits of work (I think it was Rik anyway) on a fair share scheduler, also "beancounter" which was a patch long ago that started to attack the limits issues) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
