"""Scheduler to test aggressive caching of the host list.
Please note, this is a very opinionated scheduler. Be sure to
review the caveats listed here before selecting this scheduler.
The aim of this scheduler is to reduce server build times when
you have large bursts of server builds, by reducing the time it
takes, from the users point of view, to service each schedule
request.
There are two main parts to scheduling a users request:
* getting the current state of the system
* using filters and weights to pick the best host
This scheduler tries its best to cache in memory the current
state of the system, so we don't need to make the expensive
call to get the current state of the system while processing
a user's request, we can do that query in a periodic task
before the user even issues their request.
To reduce races, cached info of the chosen host is updated using
the existing host state call: consume_from_instance
Please note, the way this works, each scheduler worker has its own
copy of the cache. So if you run multiple schedulers, you will get
more retries, because the data stored on any additional scheduler will
be more out of date, than if it was fetched from the database.
In a similar way, if you have a high number of server deletes, the
extra capacity from those deletes will not show up until the cache is
refreshed.
