Subject: Regression seen for patch "sched:dont decrease idle sleep avg"
Date: Mon, 08 May 2006 16:18:18 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1147130298.30649.33.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

Con,

As a result of the patch "sched:dont decrease idle sleep avg" 
introduced after 2.6.15, there is a 4% drop in Volanomark 
throughput on our Itanium test machine.  
Probably the following happened:
Compared to previous code, this patch slightly increases 
the the priority boost when a job is woken up.
This adds priority spread and variations to the wait time of jobs
on run queue if we have a lot of similar jobs in the system.

See patch:

p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=e72ff0bb2c163eb13014ba113701bd42dab382fe 

Regards,
Tim
