Challenges with running CPU pinned processes within Docker

Programs that want to bind themselves to free cores present some challenges
when run within Docker.

CPU pinning allows a program to request it be assigned exclusively to a core or set of cores This improves cache locality and other factors that become relevant for extremely CPU bound processes, especially in combination with other configurations that prevent the scheduler from assigning other processes

I've been doing some work lately with JSON documents in PostgreSQL using jsonb columns. You can query these documents using a GIN index in PG, but the syntax can be a little cumbersome

SELECT "events".* FROM "events" WHERE "events"."body" @> '{"shift":{"user_id":2}}'

You have to construct the right side of the query as a JSON string, which is a bit annoying. So I wondered if I could adapt Arel to do the tedious stuff for me.
