The CKRM e-series is a PID based CPU Controller. It did a good job of
controlling and smoothing out the load (and variations) and even

I have now downloaded and looked at the code you refer to. But as far as I can see, the PID controller is only used for load balancing between CPUs, not for controlling the bandwidth/time of individual tasks. Is this correct or did I miss something?
