Here are the latest results with 2.5.36 compared with 2.5.34
No Load: Kernel Time CPU 2.4.19 68.14 99% 2.4.20-pre7 68.11 99% 2.5.34 69.88 99% 2.4.19-ck7 68.40 98% 2.4.19-ck7-rmap 68.73 99% 2.4.19-cc 68.37 99% 2.5.36 69.58 99%
Process Load: Kernel Time CPU 2.4.19 81.10 80% 2.4.20-pre7 81.92 80% 2.5.34 71.39 94% 2.5.36 71.80 94%
Mem Load: Kernel Time CPU 2.4.19 92.49 77% 2.4.20-pre7 92.25 77% 2.5.34 138.05 54% 2.5.36 132.45 56%
IO Halfmem Load: Kernel Time CPU 2.4.19 99.41 70% 2.4.20-pre7 99.42 71% 2.5.34 74.31 93% 2.5.36 94.82 76%
IO Fullmem Load: Kernel Time CPU 2.4.19 173.00 41% 2.4.20-pre7 146.38 48% 2.5.34 74.00 94% 2.5.36 87.57 81%
The full log for 2.5.34 is:
noload Time: 69.88 CPU: 99% Major Faults: 247874 Minor Faults: 295941 process_load Time: 71.39 CPU: 94% Major Faults: 204811 Minor Faults: 256001 io_halfmem Time: 74.31 CPU: 93% Major Faults: 204019 Minor Faults: 255284 Was writing number 4 of a 112Mb sized io_load file after 76 seconds io_fullmem Time: 74.00 CPU: 94% Major Faults: 204019 Minor Faults: 255289 Was writing number 2 of a 224Mb sized io_load file after 98 seconds mem_load Time: 138.05 CPU: 54% Major Faults: 204107 Minor Faults: 255695
and for 2.5.36 is:
noload Time: 69.58 CPU: 99% Major Faults: 242825 Minor Faults: 292307 process_load Time: 71.80 CPU: 94% Major Faults: 205009 Minor Faults: 256150 io_halfmem Time: 94.82 CPU: 76% Major Faults: 204019 Minor Faults: 255214 Was writing number 6 of a 112Mb sized io_load file after 104 seconds io_fullmem Time: 87.57 CPU: 81% Major Faults: 204019 Minor Faults: 255312 Was writing number 3 of a 224Mb sized io_load file after 119 seconds mem_load Time: 132.45 CPU: 56% Major Faults: 204115 Minor Faults: 255234
As you can see, going from 2.5.34 to 2.5.36 has had a minor improvement in response under memory loading, but a drop in response under IO load. The log shows more was written by the IO load during benchmarking in 2.5.36 The values are different from the original 2.5.34 results I posted as there was a problem with the potential for loads overlapping, and doing the memory load before others made for heavy swapping afterwards.
contest has been upgraded to v0.34 with numerous small changes and a few fixes. It can be downloaded here:
