Hi, I am doing some basic benchmarking tests on our RM9000 based platform, running on just one of the two cores (non-smp kernel). I would be very interesting in seeing some comparative data as we seem to experience some performance problems. Even if no data is available, any comments on this results will also be appreciated.
