I could not figure out how to disable autogroups, so I ended up
compiling the kernel without CONFIG_SCHED_AUTOGROUP.
PID PR S %CPU TIME+ COMMAND
3 20 R 20.7 0:53.05 ksoftirqd/0
9299 20 R 16.3 0:03.62 udp_sink
9296 20 S 16.0 0:03.59 udp_sink
9297 20 R 16.0 0:03.58 udp_sink
9298 20 R 16.0 0:03.57 udp_sink
9295 20 R 15.3 0:03.43 udp_sink
Top new shows the CPU distribution is more correct, thus we can
concluded the artifact I saw was indeed caused by autogroup.
I can also confirm that my netperf UDP_STREAM tests now work again,
but I need around 32 parallel netperf to counter the effectiveness of
the ksoftirqd process. While I only need 5 udp_sink programs.
