Subject: [lkp] [mm] 795ae7a0de: pixz.throughput -9.1% regression
FYI, we noticed pixz.throughput -9.1% regression due to commit:
commit 795ae7a0de6b834a0cc202aa55c190ef81496665 ("mm: scale kswapd watermarks in proportion to memory")
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master
in testcase: pixz
on test machine: ivb43: 48 threads Ivytown Ivy Bridge-EP with 64G memory with following parameters: cpufreq_governor=performance/nr_threads=100%
In addition to that, the commit also has significant impact on the following tests:
will-it-scale: will-it-scale.per_process_ops -8.5% regression on test machine - ivb42: 48 threads Ivytown Ivy Bridge-EP with 64G memory
with test parameters: cpufreq_governor=performance/test=page_fault1
Details are as below:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->
To reproduce:
git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/wfg/lkp-tests.git
cd lkp-tests
bin/lkp install job.yaml # job file is attached in this email
bin/lkp run job.yaml
