| |
Following patchset converts struct proto.memory_allocated to use batching per-cpu counters, struct proto.sockets_allocated to use per-cpu counters and changes the proto.inuse per-cpu variable to use alloc_percpu instead of the NR_CPUS x cacheline size padding.
We observed 5% improvement in apache bench requests per second with this patchset on a multi NIC 8 way IBM x460 box.

Can this go into -mm please?
Thanks, Kiran
