memcg usage came up a while ago and there wasn't anything major which
can't be achieved (usually better) by following more standard cgroup
usage - changing knobs rather than moving tasks around.

Do you have a pointer to that discussion or maybe even just a sense of
who was involved so I can trawl the list and better understand it?

I wrote a lengthy explanation of why moving tasks between cgroups is
problematic from a memcg view: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/12/19/358

And many thanks for the discussion pointer here! Its very enlightening!
thanks
