Subject: [lkp-robot] [mm/cma] 4405c5fd84: vm-scalability.throughput +26.5%
improvement
Greeting,
FYI, we noticed a +26.5% improvement of vm-scalability.throughput due to commit:
commit: 4405c5fd8434809972dd2996c4dbfe5124b01d55 ("mm/cma: manage the memory of the CMA area by using the ZONE_MOVABLE")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git master
in testcase: vm-scalability
on test machine: 72 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2699 v3 @ 2.30GHz with 128G memory
with following parameters:
runtime: 300
thp_enabled: never
thp_defrag: always
nr_task: 8
nr_pmem: 4
priority: 1
test: swap-w-seq-mt
cpufreq_governor: performance
test-description: The motivation behind this suite is to exercise functions and regions of the mm/ of the Linux kernel which are of interest to us.
test-url: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/wfg/vm-scalability.git/
Details are as below:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->
To reproduce:
git clone https://github.com/intel/lkp-tests.git
cd lkp-tests
bin/lkp install job.yaml # job file is attached in this email
bin/lkp run job.yaml
