Subject: Re: [PATCH v5 00/10] Multigenerational LRU Framework

Kernel / Apache Hadoop benchmark with MGLRU

TLDR
====
With the MGLRU, Apache Hadoop took 95% CIs [5.31, 9.69]% and [2.02,
7.86]% less wall time to finish TeraSort, respectively, under the
medium- and the high-concurrency conditions, when swap was on. There
were no statistically significant changes in wall time for the rest
of the test matrix.

Background
==========
Memory overcommit can increase utilization and, if carried out
properly, can also increase throughput. The challenges are to improve
working set estimation and to optimize page reclaim. The risks are
performance degradation and OOM kills. Short of overcoming the
challenges, the only way to reduce the risks is to underutilize
memory.

Apache Hadoop is one of the most popular open-source big-data
frameworks. TeraSort is the most widely used benchmark for Apache
Hadoop.

Matrix
======
Kernels: version [+ patchset]
* Baseline: 5.15
* Patched: 5.15 + MGLRU

Swap configurations:
* Off
* On

Concurrency conditions: average # of tasks per CPU
* Low: 1/2
* Medium: 1
* High: 2

Cluster mode: local (12 concurrent jobs)
Dataset size: 100 million records from TeraGen

Total configurations: 12
Data points per configuration: 10
Total run duration (minutes) per data point: ~20

Procedure
=========
The latest MGLRU patchset for the 5.15 kernel is available at

Results
=======
Comparing the patched with the baseline kernel, Apache Hadoop took
95% CIs [5.31, 9.69]% and [2.02, 7.86]% less wall time to finish
TeraSort, respectively, under the medium- and the high-concurrency
conditions, when swap was on. There were no statistically significant
changes in wall time for the rest of the test matrix.

Table 1. Comparison between the baseline and the patched kernels

Comparing swap on with swap off, Apache Hadoop took 95% CIs [-3.39,
-1.27]% and [10.69, 15.73]% more wall time to finish TeraSort,
respectively, under the low- and the high-concurrency conditions,
when using the baseline kernel; 95% CIs [-9.34, -5.39]% and [2.52,
10.78]% more wall time, respectively, under the medium- and the
high-concurrency conditions, when using the patched kernel. There
were no statistically significant changes in wall time for the rest
