Subject: Page Faults slower in 2.6.25-rc9 than 2.6.23
Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2008 09:10:36 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <d43160c70804290610t2135a271hd9b907529e89e74e@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I don't know if this has been noticed before. I was benchmarking my
page table relocation code and I noticed that on 2.6.25-rc9 page
faults take 10% more time than on 2.6.22. This is using lmbench
running on an intel x86_64 system. The good news is that the page
table relocation code now only adds a 1.6% slow down to page faults.
