/me zaps all the kvm nonsense as that's non reproducable and only serves
to annoy.

Pro-tip: never use kvm to report cpu-cgroup issues.

So what I did (WSM-EP 2x6x2):

mount none /cgroup -t cgroup -o cpu
mkdir -p /cgroup/a
mkdir -p /cgroup/b
mkdir -p /cgroup/c

echo $$ > /cgroup/a/tasks ; for ((i=0; i<12; i++)) ; do A.sh & done
echo $$ > /cgroup/b/tasks ; for ((i=0; i<12; i++)) ; do B.sh & done
echo $$ > /cgroup/c/tasks ; for ((i=0; i<12; i++)) ; do C.sh & done

echo 2048 > /cgroup/c/cpu.shares

Where [ABC].sh are spinners:

---
#!/bin/bash

while :; do :; done
---

for i in A B C ; do ps -deo pcpu,cmd | grep "${i}\.sh" | awk '{t += $1} END {print t}' ; done
639.7
629.8
1127.4

That is of course not perfect, but it's close enough.

Now you again.. :-)
