Subject: Re: [RFC] Block IO Controller V2 - some results
Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2009 15:38:09 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1258490289.18095.13.camel@cail> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1258404660.3533.150.camel@cail>
Hi Vivek -
I've updated the runs - the results are shown at the end, I culled out
the write-related runs (haven't converted to direct I/O yet for those).
Next steps: Going to refresh to V3 of the patches and add in
http://groups.google.com/group/linux.kernel/browse_thread/thread/3b62f0665f0912b6/34ec9456c7da1bb7?lnk=raot
and convert the write-side to doing direct I/O (that would include the
rdwr tests, btw).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I've relabeled things:
i0 = io control generated in the kernel, but not enabled
i1 = io control generated in the kernel, and is enabled
g0 = group_idle=0
g1 = group_idle=1 (default)
s8 = slide_idle=8 (default)
s0 = slice_idle=0
It looks like when the io control stuff is enabled we have random read
problems.
When it is enabled and slice_idle is set to 0 we see sequential reads
drop noticeably:
