Load Balancing as a Service (LBaaS) for OpenStack
Go to file
Tom Weininger c1ebe18e2a Add cpu-pinning element
The new "cpu-pinning" element optimizes the amphora image for better
vertical scaling. When an amphora flavor with multiple vCPUs is
configured it will configure the kernel to isolate (isolcpus)
all vCPUs except the first one.
Furthermore, it uninstalls irqbalance and sets the IRQ affinity to the
first CPU. That way the other CPUs are free to be used by HAProxy
exclusively. A new customized TuneD profile applies some more tweaks
for improving network latency.

This new feature is disabled by default in diskimage-create.sh.
