Abstract
In a data processing system that is executing a parent execution entity of an application, the parent execution entity has a first affinity setting. The data processing system enables the parent execution entity to create a worker execution entity that has a second affinity setting without changing the affinity setting of the parent execution entity. Workload for the application may then be performed in parallel by the parent execution entity and the worker execution entity. In one embodiment, to create the worker execution entity with the second affinity setting, the system first creates a delegate execution entity that has the first affinity setting. The system then changes the affinity setting of the delegate execution entity to the second affinity setting. The delegate execution entity then creates the worker execution entity with the second affinity setting. Another embodiment involves a super-delegate execution entity. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
