I've often seen the following use case happening on the few linux SMP boxes

computation to do, all cpu being idle, and the process keeps on hopping
from one cpu to another.
This patch is a quick try to make this behaviour disapear without requiring
to bind all processes manually with taskset.
I don't know if there is any practical performance increase (although I
believe there locally is).
Hi !
Do you know if your patch has been included somewhere ?
We have the same problem on a HPCC here with 4 CPUs per MB, and I don't like
playing with taskset (moreover, performance under Windows *much* is better
without any tuning, shame on us), it would be nice to see less migration when
it's not needed...
Cheers,
Ludovic.
