There is already a similar blueprint about limit instance resource usage
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/quota-instance-resource

my option is expose the cpu_share and cpu_period to user ,so it can be more
flexable to implement variable policy.
this BP contains cpu and block IO usage control through cgroup and
 bandwidth control through traffic control.
