Subject: timeval: Rate-limit logging rusage information.
X-Git-Url: https://pintos-os.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=c563de0e389f42164d4f7bf76845dced4590a18c;p=openvswitch

timeval: Rate-limit logging rusage information.

I'd always assumed that the exponentially weighted moving average code
here was sufficient rate-limiting, but I actually encountered a
pathological case some time ago that forced this rusage information to
print once a second or so, which seems too often.
