Hi Mike, Could you try this patch set out. Add the first patch and then run your tests. The first patch only adds benchmarking, and does not modify the scheduler algorithm. Do this: 1. apply first patch, build and boot 2. # mount -t debugfs nodev /sys/kernel/debug 3. # echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/cpupri; ./runtest; cat /sys/kernel/debug/cpupri > output The output will give you the contention of the vector locks in the cpupri algorithm. Then apply the second patch and do the same thing. Then apply the third patch and do the same thing. After that, could you send me the results of the output file for all three runs? The final patch should probably be the best overall results.
