So, looks like the "real" slowdown starts once the buddy is up and running (no surprise).

Which might in fact indicate that this could be related to using some very special slow (ACPI?) memory for ordinary purposes, interfering with actual ACPI users? But again, just a wild guess, because the system is extremely slow afterwards, however, we don't have any pauses without any signs of life for that long. It would be interesting to run a simple memory bandwidth benchmark on the fast kernel with differing sizes up to running OOM to see if there is really some memory that is just horribly slow once allocated and used. -- Thanks, David / dhildenb _______________________________________________ amd-gfx mailing list amd-gfx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/amd-gfx
