Looks we can prove that vectors assigned to every node is <= nr_cpu of
this node, see the following:
1) suppose there are two nodes: A and B
- ncpu(X) is CPU count of node X
- vecs(X) is the vector count assigned to node X via this algorithm
ncpu(A) + ncpu(B) = N
vecs(A) + vecs(B) = V
vecs(A) = round_down(ncpu(A) * V / N)
vecs(B) = V - vecs(A)
N and V are integer, and 2 <= V <= N, suppose V = N - delta, then
delta is still integer, and 0 <= delta <= N - 2
let's prove:
vecs(A) <= ncpu(A)
vecs(B) <= ncpu(B)
2) prove vecs(A) <= ncpu(A)
vecs(A) =
round_down(ncpu(A) * (N - delta) / N) =
ncpu(A) - round_down(cpu(A) * delta / N)
so vecs(A) is <= ncpu(A)
3) prove vecs(B) <= ncpu(B)
vecs(B) = V - vecs(A)
N - delta - ncpu(A) + round_down(cpu(A) * delta / N) =
ncpu(B) - delta + round_down(cpu(A) * delta / N) <=
ncpu(B) - delta + cpu(A) * delta / N =
ncpu(B) - (1 - ncpu(A)/N) * delta <= ncpu(B)
because (1 - ncpu(A)/N) is > 0, and delta >= 0 too.
For nodes >= 3, it can be thought as one node and another big node given
that is exactly what this algorithm is implemented('remaining_ncpus' and
'numvecs' are updated in each loop), and finally for each node X, we can
prove vecs(X) <= ncpu(X).
