Ah - yes.  That was a problem.  If the load balancer couldn't offload
tasks from one or two of the most loaded CPUs (perhaps because they
were pinned.) it tended to give up.

I believe that Christoph is actively working that problem.  Adding him
to the cc list, so he can explain the state of this work more
accurately.
