I intended it to be applicable to all containerised environments. Docker is just easiest on my local machine. I still believe it's best to set these variables

  All you did is kneecapped your app to have lower performance so it fits under your arbitrary limit. Hardly what most people describe as “best” - only useful in small percentage of usecases (like reselling compute)

    I've seen significant performance gains from this in production. Other people have encountered it too hence libraries like Automaxprocs existing and issues being open with Go for it.

      Gains by what metric? Are you sure you didn't trade in better latency for worse overall throughput? Also, sure you didn't hit one of many CFS overaccounting bugs which we've seen a few? Have you compared performance without the limit at all?

        Previously we had no limit. We observed gains in both latency and throughput by implementing Automaxprocs and decided to roll it out widely. This aligns with what others have reported on the Go runtime issue open for this. "When go.uber.org/automaxprocs rolled out at Uber, the effect on containerized Go services was universally positive. At least at the time, CFS imposed such heavy penalties on Go binaries exceeding their CPU allotment that properly tuning GOMAXPROCS was a significant latency and throughput improvement." https://github.com/golang/go/issues/33803#issuecomment-1430865244 https://github.com/golang/go/issues/33803#issuecomment-14308...
