Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour,

I would like to launch several KVM guests on a multicore CPU.
The number of the KVM process is over the number of physical cores.

I would like to limit each KVM process to say... 10% of CPU

I first use "cpulimit "

Would you know some better way to limit them? it's in order to avoid 4
VM to hog all the 4 hardware cores.
KVM processes are just like Linux processes, so you can pin them and
renice them.

There is support for pinning virtual CPUs to physical CPUs in libvirt,
eg:

   virsh vcpupin GuestName 0 0

but you can also use Linux tools.  "tuna" is one such program which I
think is in Fedora, or upstream here:

   http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/acme/tuna.git;a=summary

Another tool is "renice".

Rich.
