A little complex for the whole thing. on 4 sockets EX machine, 3~5% hackbench thread regression due to 4dcfe can be recovered by ab2789. But on 2 sockets SNB machine, 1024 clients loop netperf TCP-RR has about 9% regression. and your patch seem recover 2~3%. And on a 2 sockets nhm, one of our private benchmark was impact much 20 +% regression. that benchmark just run 4 process, each of process open a thread, and the thread tasks is to locate randomly pages and than read from 4 times/write 1 time data into a page. The ab2789 commit seems no help our benchmark. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
