Hi Yuri, May be just ULE? https://www.usenix.org/legacy/event/bsdcon03/tech/full_papers/roberson/roberson.pdf "The primary goal of ULE on SMP is to prevent unnecessary CPU migration while making good use of available CPU resources. The notion of trying to schedule threads onto the last CPU that they were run on is commonly called CPU affinity. It is important to balance the cost of migrating a CPU with the cost of leaving a CPU idle. " Best regards, Michael.
