I am having a bit of a challenge reading this report. Does the -10.3%
mean that will-it-scale.per_process_ops is performing 70873 operations
per second instead of 78995 aka -10.3% fewer operations per second?
The per-profile.self-cycles-pp.do_dec_rlimits_put_ucounts now takes +2.6
more cycles, and perf-profile.self.cycles.pp.inc_rlimit_get_ucounts now
takes +3.8 more cycles.
Which if I read this correctly is a regression report about two
functions taking 3 or 4 cycles more after the code was rearranged inside
of them.
Is that correct? Is this a regression report saying those two functions
are taking a few cycles more which leads to
will-it-scale.per_process_ops not being able to perform as many
operations per second?
Given the change in the commit mentioned I think this is all down to a
bug fix causing the code to be rearranged and a compiler optimizations.
I don't see much room to do anything about this.
