I have a 32-way system with midrange server CPUs and get 650k+/sec easily. Have you tried to analyze the root cause, what does 'perf top' show during the run and how much idle time is there? Trying to reproduce your findings I have done 4x JVM tests myself, using 4x 8-warehouse setups, with a sizing of -Xms8192m -Xmx8192m -Xss256k, and here are the results: v3.7 v3.7 SPECjbb single-1x32 524k 638k +21.7% SPECjbb multi-4x8 633k 655k +3.4% So while here we are only marginally better than the single-instance numbers (I will try to improve that in numa/core v17), they are still better than mainline - and they are definitely not slower as your numbers suggest ... So we need to go back to the basics to figure this out: please outline exactly which commit ID of the numa/core tree you have booted. Also, how does 'perf top' look like on your box?
