Subject: [PATCH 0/2] ext4: increase mbcache scalability
Date: Wed, 17 Jul 2013 18:55:34 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1374108934-50550-1-git-send-email-tmac@hp.com> (raw)

This patch intends to improve the scalability of an ext4 filesystem by
introducing higher degree of parallelism to the usages of its mb_cache and
mb_cache_entries.

Here are some of the benchmark results with the changes. 

On a 90 core machine:

Here are the performance improvements in some of the aim7 workloads,

---------------------------
|             | % increase |
---------------------------
| custom      |     13.30  |
---------------------------
| disk        |      5.00  |  
---------------------------
| new_fserver |      6.73  |  
---------------------------
| shared      |      7.12  |  
---------------------------

For Swingbench dss workload,

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Users        | 100  | 200  | 300  | 400  | 500  | 600  | 700  | 800  | 900  |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| % imprvoment | 9.14 | 9.26 | 19.9 | 5.31 | 7.79 | 0.23 |-4.39 |-4.48 |-4.36 |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For SPECjbb2013, composite run,

--------------------------------------------
|               | max-jOPS | critical-jOPS |
--------------------------------------------
| % improvement |   6.73   |     16.37     |
--------------------------------------------



On an 80 core machine:

Here are the improvments in some of the aim7 workloads,
 
---------------------------
|             | % increase |
---------------------------
| fserver     |      6.47  |
---------------------------
| new_fserver |      4.62  |  
---------------------------

For Swingbench dss workload,

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Users        | 100  | 200  | 300  | 400  | 500  | 600  | 700  | 800  | 900  |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| % imprvoment | 4.29 | 2.28 | 3.25 | 1.45 |-0.84 | 3.11 |-0.61 | 3.80 | 2.58 |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For SPECjbb2013, composite run,

--------------------------------------------
|               | max-jOPS | critical-jOPS |
--------------------------------------------
| % improvement |   0.49   |      3.21     |
--------------------------------------------

The changes have been tested with ext4 xfstests to verify that no regression
has been introduced.
