So without the vfs patches, I don't see much change with this patchset (similar to the last). novfs + j_state lock Throughput 763.105 MB/sec 8 procs Throughput 1056.81 MB/sec 4 procs Throughput 681.761 MB/sec 2 procs Throughput 409.25 MB/sec 1 procs vs no vfs + j_state lock + jdb2 scalability queue Throughput 767.778 MB/sec 8 procs Throughput 1069.58 MB/sec 4 procs Throughput 679.786 MB/sec 2 procs Throughput 401.419 MB/sec 1 procs But with the vfs patchset, there's a nice increase @8cpus. vfs + j_state lock Throughput 1061.44 MB/sec 8 procs Throughput 1126.55 MB/sec 4 procs Throughput 706.306 MB/sec 2 procs Throughput 402.102 MB/sec 1 procs vs vfs + j_state lock + jdb2 scalability queue Throughput 1214.21 MB/sec 8 procs Throughput 1175.49 MB/sec 4 procs Throughput 716.294 MB/sec 2 procs Throughput 402.988 MB/sec 1 procs I'll post perf log data tomorrow. thanks -john -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ext4" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
