| |
Here are the updated benchmarks with contest v0.51 (http://contest.kolivas.net) showing the change from -mm1 to -mm2. Other results removed for clarity.
noload: Kernel [runs] Time CPU% Loads LCPU% Ratio 2.4.18 [3] 71.8 93 0 0 1.01 2.5.43 [2] 74.6 92 0 0 1.04 2.5.43-mm1 [4] 74.9 93 0 0 1.05 2.5.43-mm2 [2] 73.4 93 0 0 1.03
Interesting. This was significant. The slow start that occurs with noload after a memory flush seems to have been tamed somewhat.
process_load: Kernel [runs] Time CPU% Loads LCPU% Ratio 2.5.43 [2] 99.7 71 44 31 1.40 2.5.43-mm1 [5] 100.4 73 37 28 1.41 2.5.43-mm2 [2] 105.8 71 44 31 1.48
One pathological run removed from -mm1 and 3 removed from -mm2. Don't know why it's getting stuck doing process_load now and the other 2.5 kernels only do it at bigger data sizes for process_load. 2.4 doesnt seem to exhibit this at all.

Removal of per-cpu pages patch does not seem to have been detrimental to contest benchmarks at least - perhaps this is responsible for the noload being better now?
