fair.
Not quite... Notice that what I said was a follow-up to what Mikhail
wrote:
"I know about bit operations and if you have seen fair scheduler there
is pow2 which is implemented without resorting to _factorOf array"
Where he mentions a weighting factor used on a fair scheduler that is
calculated using pow. Were it a different approach I'd have no issues
with that (other than the fact that I did try this approach outside of
the fair algorithm context, and I didn't like the outcome. Anyway, he
might succeed in doing it on a better way, so I didn't criticise
*that*. Only the use of exponential decays inside a fair scheduler.
