Steve notes how many tokens each + process acquired, and reclaims them if the process exits without + returning them. + +- Poor man's round-robin token balancing. While steve cannot perfectly + balance jobs between multiple tasks, it does attempt to split them + between multiple processes running simultaneously and prevent any + single program from acquiring all tokens immediately. + +- Support for jobserver-level load-based scheduling with configurable + minimum of jobs to sustain when load is exceeded, and per-process job + limiting. + +- Support for adjusting parameters at runtime via ioctls (CLI provided + by stevie). + + Installation ------------
