On filesystems with a lot of metadata and in metadata intensive workloads
xfs_buf_find() is showing up at the top of the CPU cycles trace. Most of
the CPU time is spent on CPU cache misses while traversing the rbtree.
As the buffer cache does not need any kind of ordering, but fast lookups
a hashtable is the natural data structure to use. The rhashtable
infrastructure provides a self-scaling hashtable implementation and
allows lookups to proceed while the table is going through a resize
operation.
This reduces the CPU-time spent for the lookups to 1/3 even for small
filesystems with a relatively small number of cached buffers, with
possibly much larger gains on higher loaded filesystems.
The minimum size of 4096 buckets was chosen as it was the size of the
xfs buffer cache hash before it was converted to an rbtree.
