Subject: [patch] Inline vm_acct_memory
Date: Wed, 28 May 2003 16:35:53 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030528110552.GF5604@in.ibm.com> (raw)

Hi Andrew,
I found that inlining vm_acct_memory speeds up vm_enough_memory.  
Since vm_acct_memory is only called by vm_enough_memory,
theoritically inlining should help, and my tests proved so -- there was
an improvement of about 10 % in profile ticks (vm_enough_memory) on a 
4 processor PIII Xeon running kernbench.  Here is the patch.  Tested on 2.5.70

Thanks,
Kiran
