Hi Vivek, I simply tested with blktrace opened. I create two groups and set ioprio 4 and 7 respectively(the corresponding weight should 4:1, right?), and start two dd concurrently. UUIC, Ideally, the proportion of service two dd got should be 4:1 in a period of time when they are running. I extract *served* value from blktrace output and sum them up. I found the proportion of the sum of *served* value is about 1.7:1 Am i missing something? I extract the following highlight value 8,0 0 0 18.914906549 0 m N 6601ioq served=*0x13* total service=0x184d > > Thanks > Vivek > > > -- Regards Gui Jianfeng _______________________________________________ Containers mailing list Containers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/containers
