Hi Guys, Something caught my eye in [1] which a colleague pointed me to - CONFIG_HZ=1000 : 14866.05 bogo ops/s - CONFIG_HZ=1000+nohz_full : 18505.52 bogo ops/s The test in concern is: stress-ng --matrix $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN) --timeout 5m --metrics-brief which is a CPU intensive test. Any thoughts on what else can attribute a 30% performance increase versus non-nohz_full ? (Confession: No idea if the baseline is nohz_idle or no nohz at all). If it is 30%, I may want to evaluate nohz_full on some of our limited-CPU devices :) Cheers, - Joel [1] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2051342
