 * Bin pack tasks onto threads by minimizing variance in load. INTERVAL
 * specifies the number of ms between each load balance. By default it is 1000
 * (1 second). If INCREASING is true, first sort tasks in increasing
 * order based on cost, then binpack. Otherwise, tasks are decreasingly
 * sorted. By default, INCREASING is true.
