Subject: Re: [patch 1/3] slob: rework freelist handling
Date: Wed, 23 May 2007 22:07:23 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0705232159430.24918@schroedinger.engr.sgi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20070524044932.GD12121@wotan.suse.de>

Booted with full slub in 16M. The additional sysfs support etc distorts
the numbers a bit (300k more data) but it allows to run slabinfo.

Seems that we have high kmalloc array use of 64, 128, 256, 1k, 2k and 4k. 
There already is a 92 and 192 sized kmalloc cache. Hmmm..... Looks like
we cannot do much about this. Maybe add some odd sized slabs? A 768 byte 
sized?
