Cgroups, or control groups, are a feature of the Linux kernel that allows system administrators to allocate, limit, and monitor the resources used by sets of processes. Jeanne can use cgroups to manage and restrict access to CPU, memory, swap, block IO rates, and network resources for containers. This feature also enables the auditing of process groups, making it possible to track the resource usage and ensure that each container only uses its allocated share, preventing any single process from monopolizing system resources.
