RE: Restrict jobs CPU usage

[simon.thompson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Your're right it is a big subject - I think I've done my bit,  and should 
pass the problem on to our networks/infrastructure department - they 
should be able to schedule jobs so that they run at the best time.

Thanks

A program will try to get as much CPU as it can get, but only up to what
it
needs!  You can improve the efficiency of your program so that it needs
less
CPU.  Once you have reduced it's CPU requirements, then you can limit the
effect one program has on the system as a whole by tuning the system - by
setting up separate pools of memory for batch vs. interactive use, by
assigning appropriate run priorities, time slices, etc.  This is a big
topic.  Hope this helps!
