The test was on 32 core (model: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X7560) HT disabled
with 32 KVM guest vcpu 8GB RAM.

Have you ever tried to get results with HT enabled?

This looks good. Are your ebizzy results consistent run to run
though?

Hmm, I wonder what 2.5x looks like. Also, the 3% improvement with
no overcommit is interesting. What's happening there? It makes
me wonder what < 1x looks like.


Hi Andrew,

I tried 2.5x case sort where I used 3 guests with 27 vcpu each on 32
core (HT disabled machine) and here is the output. almost no gain there.

              throughput avg    stdev
base:     1768.7458 MB/sec     54.044221
patched:  1772.5617 MB/sec     41.227689
gain %0.226

I am yet to try HT enabled cases that would give 0.5x to 2x performance
results.


I have the result of HT enabled case now.
config: total 64 cpu (HT on) 32 vcpu guests.
I am seeing some inconsistency in ebizzy results in this case (May be Drew had tried with HT on and had observed the same in ebizzy runs).

patched-nonple and base performance in case of 1.5x and 2x also have been little inconsistent for dbench too. Overall I see pvspinlock + ple on case more stable. and overall pvspinlock performance seem to be very impressive in HT enabled case.

patched = pvspinv10_hton
