features:
- |
The cpu-pinning element for the amphora image sets the kernel bootarg
nohz_full=1-N to enable
full dynticks on all CPUs except the first one (on single CPU images this
will have no effect). This should reduce kernel noise on those CPUs to a
minimum and reduce latency.
upgrade:
- |
In order for the full dynticks optimization to become effective a new
amphora image needs to be built with the new optional CPU pinning
feature enabled.
