I see this commit in libvirt.git:

commit d9724a81b3c53a40f45bf76067a976cce73ed278 Author: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com> Date: Thu Nov 10 12:16:26 2011 +0000

Add support for CPU quota/period to LXC driver

and the code seems to be included in libvirt-0.9.10-21.el6.

Good catch - that patch forgot a doc update.

I have not had a chance to try on latest libvirt yet, but is it just that the CPUTuning section on the above wiki needs an update ?

That page is actually not a wiki, but maintained from a file in libvirt.git: see docs/formatdomain.html.in. Would you like to try your hand at submitting a patch? -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
