158 * Why PRIO_MAX - 2? From setpriority(2):
160 * prio is a value in the range -20 to 20. The default priority is
161 * 0; lower priorities cause more favorable scheduling. A value of
162 * 19 or 20 will schedule a process only when nothing at priority <=
165 * This gives estcpu influence over 18 priority levels, and leaves nice

167 * either side of estcpu's 18.

176 * 90% of (l_estcpu) usage in 5 * loadav time
177 * 95% of (l_pctcpu) usage in 60 seconds (load insensitive)
178 * Note that, as ps(1) mentions, this can let percentages
179 * total over 100% (I've seen 137.9% for 3 processes).
181 * Note that hardclock updates l_estcpu and l_cpticks independently.
183 * We wish to decay away 90% of l_estcpu in (5 * loadavg) seconds.
184 * That is, the system wants to compute a value of decay such
185 * that the following for loop:
186 * for (i = 0; i < (5 * loadavg); i++)
190 * for all values of loadavg:
192 * Mathematically this loop can be expressed by saying:
193 * decay ** (5 * loadavg) ~= .1
195 * The system computes decay as:
196 * decay = (2 * loadavg) / (2 * loadavg + 1)
198 * We wish to prove that the system's computation of decay
199 * will always fulfill the equation:
200 * decay ** (5 * loadavg) ~= .1
202 * If we compute b as:
205 * decay = b / (b + 1)
207 * We now need to prove two things:
208 * 1) Given factor ** (5 * loadavg) ~= .1, prove factor == b/(b+1)
209 * 2) Given b/(b+1) ** power ~= .1, prove power == (5 * loadavg)
212 * For x close to zero, exp(x) =~ 1 + x, since
213 * exp(x) = 0! + x**1/1! + x**2/2! + ... .
214 * therefore exp(-1/b) =~ 1 - (1/b) = (b-1)/b.
215 * For x close to zero, ln(1+x) =~ x, since
216 * ln(1+x) = x - x**2/2 + x**3/3 - ... -1 < x < 1
217 * therefore ln(b/(b+1)) = ln(1 - 1/(b+1)) =~ -1/(b+1).
221 * Solve (factor)**(power) =~ .1 given power (5*loadav):
222 * solving for factor,
223 * ln(factor) =~ (-2.30/5*loadav), or
224 * factor =~ exp(-1/((5/2.30)*loadav)) =~ exp(-1/(2*loadav)) =
225 * exp(-1/b) =~ (b-1)/b =~ b/(b+1). QED
228 * Solve (factor)**(power) =~ .1 given factor == (b/(b+1)):
230 * power*ln(b/(b+1)) =~ -2.30, or
231 * power =~ 2.3 * (b + 1) = 4.6*loadav + 2.3 =~ 5*loadav. QED
233 * Actual power values for the implemented algorithm are as follows:
235 * power: 5.68 10.32 14.94 19.55
