Even though bogomips as shown in /proc/cpuinfo is a rough estimation of CPU capability, there must be some truth to it. Is it computed by doing a simple busy loop to see how many iterations it can go through within some set time? I can't imagine half of the CPUs on one of our boxes have only half the bogomips of the others: $ grep bogomips /proc/cpuinfo bogomips : 4018.62 bogomips : 2009.31 bogomips : 4018.62 bogomips : 2009.31 bogomips : 4018.62 bogomips : 2009.31 bogomips : 4018.62 bogomips : 2009.31 Yong Huang -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
