[PATCH 2/2] kernel-shark: Increase the size of the task hash

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>

When loading a data file that contained 100,000s of tasks, using a 256
bucket size hash crippled it. By increasing the hash to 2^16 (65536) it
solves the issue (still small enough not to waste too much memory).

Also switched to the tracecmd_quick_hash() which is basically the same
as the local knuth_hash() function in libkshark.c.
