This is true, but I don't see how it can be more performance-sensitive than the overhead of allocating/freeing a page. What kinds of performance regressions did you see? > if increase fork overhead, system total performance cause degression. What kind of overhead were you seeing? How about if you delay doing any task accounting until the task_limit subsystem is bound to a hierarchy? That way there's no noticeable overhead for people who aren't using your subsystem.
