+What:		/sys/kernel/uids/<uid>/cpu_shares
+Date:		December 2007
+Contact:	Dhaval Giani <dhaval@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
+		Srivatsa Vaddagiri <vatsa@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
+Description:
+		The /sys/kernel/uids/<uid>/cpu_shares tunable is used
+		to set the cpu bandwidth a user is allowed. This is a
+		propotional value. What that means is that if there
+		are two users logged in, each with shares 1024, they
+		will get equal CPU bandwidth.
