I don't see it proposed as a topic yet (unless I missed it) but I spoke with Peter briefly and I think this would be a good opportunity in particular to discuss NUMA-aware load-balancing. Currently, we only try to solve the 1-d problem of optimizing for weight; but there's recently been interest from several parties in improving this. Issues involves proactively accounting for the distribution of current allocations, determining when to initiate reactive migration (or when not to move tasks!), and the associated grouping semantics.
