Abstract
The described embodiments include a system for executing a load using a first processor and a seond processor in a computer system. During operation, a load balancer executing on the first processor obtains one or more attributes of a load to be executed on the computer system. Next, the load balancer applies a set of configurable rules to the one or more attributes to select a processor from the first and second processors for executing the load. Finally, the system executes the load on the selected processor.
