I think so. Given guarantees G1..Gn (0 <= Gi <= 1; sum(Gi) <= 1), and a
cpu hog running in each group, how would the algorithm divide resources?
As per the matrix calculation, but as soon as we reach an idle point,
we redistribute the b/w and start a new quantum so to speak, where all
groups are charged up to their hard limits.
For your question, if there is a CPU hog running, it would be as per
the matrix calculation, since the system has no idle point during the
bandwidth period.
So the groups with guarantees get a priority boost. That's not a good
side effect.
