+        We recommend to turn off Real-Time group scheduling in the
+        kernel when using systemd. RT group scheduling effectively
+        makes RT scheduling unavailable for most userspace, since it
+        requires explicit assignment of RT budgets to each unit whose
+        processes making use of RT. As there's no sensible way to
+        assign these budgets automatically this cannot really be
+        fixed, and it's best to disable group scheduling hence.

         Note that kernel auditing is broken when used with systemd's
         container code. When using systemd in conjunction with
         containers, please make sure to either turn off auditing at
