Only enable the memory controller in cgroup subtree_control instead of all available controllers. cpu.stat is available in cgroup v2 without enabling the cpu controller (base accounting), and enabling io/pids/cpu controllers adds unnecessary per-operation kernel overhead to Scylla processes - particularly the memory controller's per-page-cache-operation accounting combined with io controller overhead during heavy I/O. Additionally, restrict SystemResourceMonitor to the master process only. System-wide metrics (CPU%, memory) are identical from any process, so running a monitoring thread in each xdist worker was redundant and added unnecessary SQLite write contention and thread scheduling noise. Replace cpu_percent(interval=0.1) with a non-blocking cpu_percent() that returns CPU% since the previous call. Use stop_event.wait(timeout=2.0) as the loop control to both space out iterations and allow immediate shutdown responsiveness. Fixes SCYLLADB-2141 Closes scylladb/scylladb#29987 * github.com:scylladb/scylladb: test: use non-blocking cpu_percent in SystemResourceMonitor test.py: reduce cgroup overhead in resource metrics gathering

If you can use an existing folder, consider adding your test to it. New folders should be used for new large categories/subsystems, or when the test environment is significantly different from some existing suite, e.g. you plan to start scylladb with different configuration, and you intend to add many tests and would like them to reuse an existing Scylla cluster (clusters can be reused for tests within the same folder).
To add a new folder, create a new directory, and then
copy & edit its suite.ini.
