AI-generatedLatency limits of RHEL cpu-partitioning when kernel threads remain on isolated CPUs
The tuned cpu-partitioning profile in Red Hat Enterprise Linux is a documented mechanism for reducing scheduler and interrupt interference on designated CPUs for latency-sensitive workloads. The goal is to minimize tail latency when multiple concurrent requests contend for CPU resources. The profile removes user-space scheduler load from isolated CPUs, but i
