Subject: Re: zram: per-cpu compression streams

Hello Minchan,
sorry for long reply.

I used a bit different script. no `buffer_compress_percentage' option,
because it provide "a mix of random data and zeroes"

buffer_compress_percentage=int
    If this is set, then fio will attempt to provide IO buffer content
    (on WRITEs) that compress to the specified level. Fio does this by
    providing a mix of random data and zeroes

and I also used scramble_buffers=0. but default scramble_buffers is
true, so

scramble_buffers=bool
    If refill_buffers is too costly and the target is using data
    deduplication, then setting this option will slightly modify the IO
    buffer contents to defeat normal de-dupe attempts. This is not
    enough to defeat more clever block compression attempts, but it will
    stop naive dedupe of blocks. Default: true.

hm, but I guess it's not enough; fio probably will have different
data (well, only if we didn't ask it to zero-fill the buffers) for
different tests, causing different zram->zsmalloc behaviour. need
to check it.


> Hmm, Could you retest to who how the benefit is big?

sure. the results are:

- seq-read
- rand-read
- seq-write
- rand-write  (READ + WRITE)
- mixed-seq
- mixed-rand  (READ + WRITE)

TEST        4 streams     8 streams       per-cpu
