The only contra I would mention WRT the feature is that features having no abi or thou shalt not regress protections makes them.. suboptimal tuning knobs for userspace. WRT patchlet, I tried same yesterday for grins (but spelled it "EVDF") and fed it my favorite mixed load of youtube vs 8ms run 1ms sleep massive_intr as a vaguely kbuild like competing "compute" component. It didn't do anything lovely for the "interactive" bits, in fact did some damage when letting the CPU do the rendering (something I have good but irrelevant reasons to do at times;). With or without RUN_TO_PARITY, EVDF skewed distribution toward "compute".

Note, the benchmark we use is very close to real world settings that we care about. And if we were to go further with Youssef's feature, we would test it by sending it out to 1% of our user base, then 2%, 5%, and so on, with a lot more feedback analysis going on. If it were to cause any regressions, it would likely be noticed during this process, and be able to back out any changes. The main point is, our testing is not around any single benchmark that we are trying to make happy. We really are looking at what makes the user base run better in the real world. > > I'm hoping the default is enough, but otherwise any of the above should > be a *much* better scheduler. > > Also, bonus points if you can create us a stand alone benchmark that > captures your metric (al-la facebook's schbench) without the whole > chrome nonsense, that'd be epic. As I stated above. We don't really care about any one benchmark, but our focus is on our user base. It's not as simple as what facebook would have, as they are server focused and have a lot more information to test with. We are more focused on the quality of chromebooks for kids in school, which is much more difficult to analyze ;-) What we could do, is give you a way to have access to run our benchmarks in our infrastructure if you want to test anything in particular. Would you be interested in that? -- Steve ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

This is a key (har-har) performance indicator for you guys though, I've seen it mentioned before (with the core-scheduling crud IIRC). As such it would be good to capture in a stand alone program and share. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
