At $DAYJOB we would really like to have application process control
over the kernel scheduler, as this seems to be the only realistic
way to avoid the (kernel) resource starvation issues we run into.
Our back end servers don't go down often. But when they do, it's for
reasons entirely out of our control. Because those resource allocation
policies have been pushed into the kernel, and beyond our control.
