Subject: [perf core]  bdacfaf26d:
 phoronix-test-suite.tungsten.Non-Exponential.seconds -22.7% improvement



Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a -22.7% improvement of phoronix-test-suite.tungsten.Non-Exponential.seconds due to commit:


commit: bdacfaf26da166dd56c62f23f27a4b3e71f2d89e ("perf core: Add a kmem_cache for struct perf_event")
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master

in testcase: phoronix-test-suite
on test machine: 96 threads 2 sockets Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6252 CPU @ 2.10GHz with 128G memory
with following parameters:

	test: tungsten-1.0.0
	option_a: Non-Exponential
	cpufreq_governor: performance
	ucode: 0x5003006

test-description: The Phoronix Test Suite is the most comprehensive testing and benchmarking platform available that provides an extensible framework for which new tests can be easily added.
test-url: http://www.phoronix-test-suite.com/





Details are as below:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------->


To reproduce:

        git clone https://github.com/intel/lkp-tests.git
        cd lkp-tests
        sudo bin/lkp install job.yaml           # job file is attached in this email
        bin/lkp split-job --compatible job.yaml # generate the yaml file for lkp run
        sudo bin/lkp run generated-yaml-file

        # if come across any failure that blocks the test,
        # please remove ~/.lkp and /lkp dir to run from a clean state.
