How about changing it to not throttle apps that use less than the
current throttling

How about changing it to not throttle apps that use less than the current
throttling value? E.g. if throttling is set at .9, don't throttle a task that
uses .8.

Hi all!
While hunting for a bug recently, we at Einstein@Home came across a
question that I would like to present for discussion here:
If an app has a non zero GPU share (GPU app for short), should CPU
throttling (as configured thru the preferences setting Use at most x % of
CPU time) be
to it immediately.

I guess there are several pros and cons, e.g.:
cons:
- one one hand, GPU apps (depending on the CPU share?) get a higher OS
prio (in terms of niceness) to prevent the GPU being starved. Throttling
the CPU might very well cause this starvation
The only pro I can think of would be to reduce GPU use to keep
temperature or power use down, but that would be better implemented as
GPU throttling.
