Hi, I have noticed that without explicit flags, the mesos-agent does not restrict a cgroup of a container to any CPUSET. This has quite deleterious consequences in our usage model where the OS threads in containerized processes migrate to any NUMA sockets over time and lose locality to memory they allocated with the first touch policy. It would take a lot of effort to specify the exact CPUSET at the container launch time.
I am wondering if the mesos agent can expose a flag (e.g., --best-effort-numa-locality) so that if the requested number of CPU share and memory demands meet the requirements, then the container can be launched with the cgroup affinity set to a single NUMA socket and avoid any deleterious effects of unrestricted CPU migration. -Milind
