Hi Jeremy, please have a look at Linpack and Stream results http://perf-desktop.brq.redhat.com/LinpackAndStream/Red-Hat-Enterprise-Linux-Server-release-7.2/maja.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com-htON/4.6.0-0.rc5.git0.1.el7.x86_64/throughput-performance/Results-2016-Apr-28_14h01m32s/RawData.tar.xz and http://perf-desktop.brq.redhat.com/LinpackAndStream/Red-Hat-Enterprise-Linux-Server-release-7.2/maja.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com-htON/4.6.0-0.rc5.git0.1.wastedcores.el7.x86_64/throughput-performance/Results-2016-Apr-29_15h37m17s/RawData.tar.xz We have collected /proc/sched_debug every 10 seconds - there are ""*scheddebug" files for every run. We are also collecting mpstat statistics every 2 seconds. For example during a test when 64 stream jobs were running in parallel there are corresponding /proc/sched_debug logs: 4.6.0-0.rc5.git0.1.el7.x86_64/throughput-performance/Results-2016-Apr-28_14h01m32s/RawData/stream.affinityRun.064streams.loop01.scheddebug <http://perf-desktop.brq.redhat.com/LinpackAndStream/Red-Hat-Enterprise-Linux-Server-release-7.2/maja.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com-htON/4.6.0-0.rc5.git0.1.el7.x86_64/throughput-performance/Results-2016-Apr-28_14h01m32s/RawData/stream.affinityRun.064streams.loop01.scheddebug> 4.6.0-0.rc5.git0.1.wastedcores.el7.x86_64/throughput-performance/Results-2016-Apr-29_15h37m17s/RawData/stream.affinityRun.064streams.loop01.scheddebug <http://perf-desktop.brq.redhat.com/LinpackAndStream/Red-Hat-Enterprise-Linux-Server-release-7.2/maja.lab.eng.brq.redhat.com-htON/4.6.0-0.rc5.git0.1.wastedcores.el7.x86_64/throughput-performance/Results-2016-Apr-29_15h37m17s/RawData/stream.affinityRun.064streams.loop01.scheddebug> However, we are not sure how to process these log files. Is there any tool to do so or could you share some hints what to look for? Thanks a lot! Jirka On Tue, May 3, 2016 at 4:18 PM, Jeremy Eder <jeder@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Yikes. 20% off...why?
