To watch for performance regressions and improvements, I regularly run several
variations of iozone, fio 70/30 mix, and multi-threaded software builds. I did
not note any change in throughput after applying these patches.
I'm unsure how to measure context switch rate precisely during these tests.
This is typical for fio 8KB random 70/30 mix on FDR Infiniband on a NUMA client.
Not impressive compared to NVMe, I know, but much better than NFS/TCP. On a
single socket client, the IOPS numbers more than double.
