Greeting,

FYI, we noticed a 210.0% improvement of fwq.fwq.med due to commit:

Well, that sounds impressive. :-)



commit: 909c0e9cc11ba39fa5a660583b25c2431cf54deb ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use passive mode by default without HWP") https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git intel_pstate-passive

in testcase: fwq
on test machine: 16 threads Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU D-1541 @ 2.10GHz with 48G memory
with following parameters:

    nr_task: 100%
    samples: 100000ss
    iterations: 18x
    cpufreq_governor: powersave

The governor should be schedutil, though, unless it is explicitly set to powersave in the test environment.

Is that the case?



Hi Rafael,

Yes, we set to powersave for this test.
