Subject: [lkp-robot] [mm, vmscan]  fe23914ddd:  fsmark.files_per_sec -11.1%
 regression


Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -11.1% regression of fsmark.files_per_sec due to commit:


commit: fe23914dddb126a29ac4929415eb318f60d97cac ("mm, vmscan: consider eligible zones in get_scan_count")
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master

in testcase: fsmark
on test machine: 48 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2697 v2 @ 2.70GHz with 64G memory
with following parameters:

	iterations: 1
	nr_threads: 64
	disk: 3HDD
	md: RAID5
	fs: btrfs
	filesize: 4M
	test_size: 130G
	sync_method: NoSync
	cpufreq_governor: performance

test-description: The fsmark is a file system benchmark to test synchronous write workloads, for example, mail servers workload.
test-url: https://sourceforge.net/projects/fsmark/


Details are as below:
