Hey all,

Anyone familiar with the state of Raptor Lake performance + efficiency cores in Linux? I’m specifically curious about how the kernel balances things when running multiple containers (without pinned CPUs)

Thanks!

        A quick look at docker docs says it’s the only way. Same with any other way of running a program/service, you have to manually set an affinity of an executable

            I didn’t say it’s forced, it’s the only way I know of to force usage of specific threads/cores, that’s all, I thought it’s what you’re looking for, if you want it to be automatic like other prices in the system then leave it without it, there’s nothing (else) specific in docker to control if P or E cores should be prioritized for given containers
