This suggestion doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.
We're looking to see if a task has dirtied most of the pages in the nodes it is allowed to use. If it has, then we want to start pushing pages to the disk harder, and slowing down the tasks writes.
What would it mean to do this per-node? And why would that be better?
