^^^^^^^^^^^
"Total runnable" hurts my eyes, but in any case this shouldn't be just
"utilization".

I haven't stared long enough at patch 2, but I'll ask anyway - with this new
condition, do we still need the next one (based on util)? AIUI
group_runnable is >= group_util, so if group_runnable is within the allowed
margin then group_util has to be as well.

Ditto on the group_runnable >= group_util - we could get rid of the check
above this one.
