Seems we have a new hammer and everyone is looking to use.  So far
systemd, sandbox, libvirt and chrome-sandbox are using it.  Which
probably is not going to get the results we want.

Since systemd goal might be to make sure no user uses more then X% of
memory/CPU/ or setup CPU afinity.  But sandbox and chrome-sandbox might
allow you to use more.

Which is why I think the kernel needs to allow nesting of cgroups.
