The recent changes in frame buffer code seems to affect performance of scrolling on my system:
Voodoo Banshee (tdfxfb)
CONFIG: # # Graphics support # CONFIG_FB=y CONFIG_FB_3DFX=y # CONFIG_FB_3DFX_ACCEL is not set
# # Console display driver support # CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y # CONFIG_MDA_CONSOLE is not set CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y # CONFIG_FONTS is not set CONFIG_FONT_8x8=y CONFIG_FONT_8x16=y
Tests with "linux/MAINTAINERS" (time cat MAINTAINERS) 2.6.8.1 real 0m2.625s user 0m0.000s sys 0m2.621s
2.6.9-rc1 real 0m13.528s user 0m0.000s sys 0m13.553s
Also many -mm kernels are affected... this is obvious because these patches come from Andrew's tree ;-)
Any ideas?
