Hello, some time ago there was a lottery scheduler for FreeBSD = (http://www.hypersurface.net/dpetrou/research.html), there is a code for = FreeBSD 2.x -- 4.8 there. The idea is to try to give equal amount of cpu for each user, regardless = of how many threads they spawn. Solaris has Fair Share Scheduler which does similar things. This is very important for multi-user development machines, where there = are a lot of users who can spawn several multi-threaded processes, = almost monopolizing CPU resources. How hard would be to adopt it to current FreeBSD version (or may be = there are efforts to write something similar?) Thanks!=
