Against 2.6.0-test11
Oh, this patchset also (mostly) cures my pet hate for the
last few months: VolanoMark on the NUMA.
http://www.kerneltrap.org/~npiggin/w26/vmark.html
The "average" plot for w26 I think is a little misleading because
it got an unlucky result on the second last point making it look
like its has a downward curve. It is usually more linear with a
sharp downward spike at 150 rooms like the "maximum" plot.
Don't ask me why it runs out of steam at 150 rooms. hackbench does
something similar. I think it might be due to some resource running
short, or a scalability problem somewhere else.
i didn't had the time to apply the patches (w26 and C1 from ingo ) on a vanilla t11, but i merged them with the wli-2,btw this one has really put my box on steroids ;) .
^^^^^^
none of them finished a hackbench 320 run, the OOM killed all of my
agetty's logging me out. the box is a 1way p4(HT) 1gb of ram and no swap heh.
