Hello, I did some performance measurements with SpecCPU 2017 in variant fp rate (i.e., utilize all cpu cores). It looks like this: 8-NUMA Hypervizor specfp2017 - 124 1-NUMA Hypervizor specfp2017 - 103 2-NUMA Hypervizor specfp2017 - 120 8-NUMA Virtual (on 8N Hypervizor) specfp2017 - 92 1-NUMA Virtual (on 1N Hypervizor) specfp2017 - 95.2 2-NUMA Virtual (on 2N Hypervizor) specfp2017 - 98 (memory strict) 2-NUMA Virtual (on 2N Hypervizor) specfp2017 - 98.1 (memory interleave) 2x 1-NUMA Virtual (on 2N Hypervizor) specfp2017 - 117.2 (sum for both) On Fri, Sep 14, 2018 at 03:40:56PM +0200, Lukas Hejtmanek wrote: > Hello again, > > when the iozone writes slow.
