Thanks for the kind words. But the script is far from perfect. Consider it a rough draft. It worked for me, but it doesn't do a lot of things, e.g. error checking. > Mind if I forward your message to webupd8 ?

My "contention" is not that there isn't a benefit (there probably is), but rather that I don't understand the benefit. For example, when I type a character in a terminal or click a link on a web page, I see the that action almost immediately. Does "more responsive" mean that those actions will now happen even faster? If so, then that is not a big benefit to me. Or does "more responsive" mean my programs will run faster or web pages will render faster? If so, then it is a huge benefit to me. Since having the cgroup scripts in place for almost 2 days, I honestly can't tell the difference with or without them.
