I'm very happy to announce the release of a new version of the CPU Caps project. This new version is based on Solaris Nevada build 40 and comes with a number of changes made since last release:

• CPU caps should now be more accurately enforced.
• FSS shares now work under caps (e.g., capped zone with projects in FSS class)
• Added DTrace probe for when threads are placed on wait queues (sched:::wait) for better observability
• Maximum CPU cap value was raised from 65535 to 1000000
• CPU caps now work property with hires_tick set to 1
• Added new -N option to prstat to show unnormalized CPU usage percentages (i.e, 100% = 1 CPU)

Hopefully, more people will download and try this version on their systems now. As always, please forward your comments and/or questions to cpu-caps-beta@sun.com. The feedback received so far had been very positive.
