Public bug reported:
boinc seems to run its jobs with a niceness of 19 as user `boinc'.
when i am running 4 processes (gcc) on a 4-core machine at a niceness of
5, i'd expect the boinc process to be idle (because it has a lower
niceness). but in fact the boinc process takes one full CPU, while the
user jobs are restricted to the other CPUs. it seems that the scheduler
interprets the niceness not globally, but per-user (maybe related to
cgroups)?
iac, it would be great, if this could be addressed.
