My results (2 nodes, 12 cores/node, 2 threads/core) show that you've pretty much restored hackbench performance to v4.12. However, it's a regression against v4.13 for hackbench-process-pipes (I'm guessing the v4.13 improvement is due to Rik's original patches). The last two result columns are your latest patch with NO_WA_WEIGHT and then with WA_WEIGHT enabled.

Of course, like a dope, I forgot to re-run netperf with your WA_WEIGHT patch. So I've queued that up now and it should be done by tomorrow.
