And maybe I'm just ignorant on the topic, but what exactly does CPU priority do here? I understand basic linux process priority (like the 'nice' command), but how exactly does CPU priority behave on linode. Searching through their docs, I couldn't find anything.
EDIT: to maybe answer my own question, maybe this is the Xen credit schedule? http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Credit_Scheduler http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Credit_Scheduler
- agwa 14y ago2x CPU priority may simply mean that you're sharing the host with 1/2 as many other guests (and each guest is guaranteed at least its equal share of the CPU). They've stated publicly in the past that larger Linodes share the host with proportionally fewer other guests.
