I tested your per cpu partial set on hackbench and netperf loopback benchmark. hackbench improve much. Maybe some IO testing is low concurrency for SLUB, maybe a few jobs kbuild? or low swap press testing. I may try them for your patchset in the near days. BTW, some testing results for your PCP SLUB: for hackbench process testing: on WSM-EP, inc ~60%, NHM-EP inc ~25% on NHM-EX, inc ~200%, core2-EP, inc ~250%. on Tigerton-EX, inc 1900%, :) for hackbench thread testing: on WSM-EP, no clear inc, NHM-EP no clear inc on NHM-EX, inc 10%, core2-EP, inc ~20%. on Tigertion-EX, inc 100%, for netperf loopback testing, no clear performance change. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
