Numbers:
benchmark is hackbench -pipe 1 thread 4000
task sitting in the root cgroup
================================
Without this patch:
4.857700 (0.69 %)
With this patch:
4.828733 (0.55 %)
Difference between them: 0.59 %, very close to the standard deviation,
no real difference.
task sitting in a 3-level cgroup
=================================
Without this patch
5.120867 (1.60 %)
With this patch
5.126267 (1.30 %)
Difference between them: 0.10 %, way within the standard deviation
Task sitting in a level-30 cgroup: (total crazy)
=================================================
Without this patch:
8.829385 (2.63 %)
With this patch:
9.347846 (2.25 %)
Difference is about 5.8 %, way out of the standard deviation, so it is
really worse. But who uses 30-level hierarchy?
I believe depth-3 is close to a practical worst case, for the very
majority of the workloads out there. Therefore I don't see the loop here
as a big problem. It does degrade, but not in any use case that matters.
