Description
Proxy Execution has had a long history and has been worked on by many key scheduler developers and maintainers over the years. Because of this, when speaking at OSPM or Plumbers after picking up this work, I’ve often been very brief when covering the concept with the assumption that folks in the room often had more experience with it than I have.
However, I’ve found there are often a lot of basic questions about Proxy Execution that get asked after my talks, so I figured a talk providing some deeper background on why it’s needed, along with how it works and the various cases it needs to handle. We can also talk about some of the more complicated edge cases that have been worked out, allowing for questions as we go through it.
