Abstract
A method, apparatus, and program product select a pre-started job from among a plurality of pre-started jobs in which to perform a task in a computer system with a NUMA configuration. An attempt to perform a task is received as a connection. Information associated with the connection is compared to information associated with a plurality of pre-started jobs. In response to comparing the information, it is determined either that a pre-started job was previously used to perform the task or that no pre-started job was previously used to perform the task. In response to either determination, another pre-started job is determined in which to perform the task. The other pre-started job is determined based on affinity with the task, and may be reallocated to perform the task.
