What:		/sys/kernel/uids/<uid>/cpu_sharesDate:		December 2007Contact:	Dhaval Giani <dhaval@linux.vnet.ibm.com>		Srivatsa Vaddagiri <vatsa@linux.vnet.ibm.com>Description:		The /sys/kernel/uids/<uid>/cpu_shares tunable is used		to set the cpu bandwidth a user is allowed. This is a		propotional value. What that means is that if there		are two users logged in, each with an equal number of		shares, then they will get equal CPU bandwidth. Another		example would be, if User A has shares = 1024 and user		B has shares = 2048, User B will get twice the CPU		bandwidth user A will.
