Description Marcin Mirosław 2013-02-01 13:40:56 UTC

It could be nice to have possibility to set cpu affinity on started applications. E.g.
rc_affinity="-c 3,4" #(syntax used in taskset utility)
There are cpu hungry application which rather works faster when are bounded to one cpu. E.g. http://redis.io/topics/benchmarks chapter "Factors impacting Redis performance" , http://www.linux-kvm.com/content/tip-running-your-vm-specific-cpus .

Reproducible: Always
