Mind describing what your actual end goal is, and spending a little
more word describing how you were thinking to achieve it?
I see the formula, but I don't understand:
- what is it that you are trying to improve/achieve? Better fairness,
I guess?
- how do you plan to use such formula, i.e., where in the algorithm
you'd put it? Credits are already been burned basing on how much a
vcpu executes, is this about how much credits a vcpu is given at
the beginning/reset? How would it integrate with credits_per_tslice
and friends?

Cpu usage in terms of what? Time? Percentage? Over what time interval?
It is certainly possible to figure out how long a vcpu executed on a
pcpu on a given time interval, but depending from the characteristics
of such time interval, the way to actually do that varies.
