Also, Users can launch tasks and renice them to lowest priority levels..., with the highset priority being given by the administrator...I've always though it's gnome/kde fault to launch the apps at the same nice level than the panel and the window manager. Despite of that my "design" wouldn't achieve that such fine-grained control, no - I'd argue that not many people needs that, but then I shouldn't tell people what they need (and anyway the previous proposal would so powerful for its simplicity that it might be worth of it doing it anyway) > I'd love to see patches which could be validated by folks like the PlanetLab > folks, for instance.

I realize that CKRM provides much broader functionality, the alternative I was proposing was just for CPU resources (and would probably work well for IO bandwith with CFQ), I realize that things like "partitioning memory resources" is a whole different problem. But I certainly think that CKRM is far too complex - the docs I've read spent all the time describing things like classes, classes inhretance, classification engine, resources scheduler, resource schedulers configuration and so on. I must admit I've not read too much about CKRM - I had to stop because I couldn't understand it, everything is far too complex to my little mind, and I'm saying this because I bet I'm not the only one here who can't understand it either..... - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
