We made the mistake of setting TaskAffinity=yes, though I'm not sure why we did that. There seems to be a bug where the first node has cgroup/cpuset and task affinity set correctly, but subsequent nodes set task affinity for *all* tasks to be CPU 0. We hadn't gotten around to reporting it yet but it's worth checking out.

Hi ,

I started using cgroups for control memory usage last week.  One user
reported his application takes 4 times longer to complete.  I read
elsewhere that cgroup mem. control can reduce performance.  Is this
amount realistic?

Is there a more efficient method to control memory usage on nodes which
are shared?


Thank you for any advice,

Kevin
