oops, the above approach is wrong, same with V3.

It should happen on just the node with max CPU count, then we can't
go ahead. There are more vectors than CPU count on this node, all
vectors have to be spread, each CPU can be assigned to only one vector.

However, can't observe such problem at all, I need to think about if
it is possible from viewpoint of math.
