This proportion +can be modified by changing the container's CPU share weighting relative +to the weighting of all other running containers. + +To modify the proportion from the default of 1024, use the **--cpu-shares** +flag to set the weighting to 2 or higher. + +The proportion will only apply when CPU-intensive processes are running. +When tasks in one container are idle, other containers can use the +left-over CPU time. The actual amount of CPU time will vary depending on +the number of containers running on the system. + +For example, consider three containers, one has a cpu-share of 1024 and +two others have a cpu-share setting of 512.
