Subject: Re: [RFC, PATCH 1/2] sched: change the fairness model of the CFS
	group scheduler

Quoting Dhaval Giani (dhaval@...ux.vnet.ibm.com):
> This patch allows tasks and groups to exist in the same cfs_rq. With this
> change the CFS group scheduling follows a 1/(M+N) model from a 1/(1+N)
> fairness model where M tasks and N groups exist at the cfs_rq level.

Cool, this is precisely what I'd expect and was hoping to see.
