Hi, I have just ported linux kernel 2.6.10 for MIPS4Kc-core board.Before porting 2.6 kernel ,2.4.20 was running on this board. When I took benchmarks for both the kernels for comparison, I found out that linux-2.4.20 was giving much better results than linux-2.6.10. The specs for the board are as follows: -------------------------------------------------------------- 133MHz MIPS4kc 32MB 133Mhz SDRAM Cache Size: 16KB Timer interrupt is set to 100 interrupts/sec The hard disk attached to the board had ultraDMA 5 capability -------------------------------------------------------------- I am also attaching the benchmarks I took for both the kernels. Is there any way I can improve 2.6's performance? Thanks.
