So since cpumax5 has a lower nice value and thus a higher priority (25 in

value of -20, it does start using it's own cpu.
My explanation would be that since the scheduler tries to limit cpu
affinity, the nice value of 0 isn't enough to get the scheduler to move
this process to another processors run queue. I could be totally wrong
here though.
I think you are correct. The load balancer doesn't think that this is
enough of an imbalance to go through the effort of swapping two
processes around.
