using 2.6.10-rc3-mm with Ingo's latest Real-Time Preempt on a pentium M 1.6ghz laptop with a gig of ram. The test was done as a normal user using the realtime-lsm patch and I have Rui's rtirq script up and running. One of the three tests was completed while compiling gnuplot in the background :). *********** CONSOLIDATED RESULTS ************ Total seconds ran . . . . . . : 1200 Number of clients . . . . . . : 20 Ports per client . . . . . . : 4 Frames per buffer . . . . . . : 64 ********************************************* Summary Result Count . . . . : 3 / 3 ********************************************* Timeout Rate . . . . . . . . :( 0.0)/hour XRUN Rate . . . . . . . . . . : 4.0 /hour Delay Rate (>spare time) . . : 85477.0 /hour Delay Rate (>1000 usecs) . . : 0.0 /hour Delay Maximum . . . . . . . . : 0 usecs Cycle Maximum . . . . . . . . : 0 usecs Average DSP Load. . . . . . . : 34.0 % Average CPU System Load . . . : 25.5 % Average CPU User Load . . . . : 27.7 % Average CPU Nice Load . . . . : 0.0 % Average CPU I/O Wait Load . . : 0.1 % Average CPU IRQ Load . . . . : 0.0 % Average CPU Soft-IRQ Load . . : 0.0 % Average Interrupt Rate . . . : 1881.0 /sec Average Context-Switch Rate . : 42065.8 /sec ********************************************* I ran it 3 times. twice at 300s and once for 600 seconds.
