Hi, sorry if this is a faq but reading
http://people.freebsd.org/~kris/scaling/7.0%20Preview.pdf (slides 17,
18)
looks like 2.6.23 is having a performance regression on MySQL and
PostgreSQL benchmarks.  Has anyone investigated these?

I think Ingo was looking into them. I'm just in the middle of
building a new setup to investigate some performance issues too,
so I hope to look at this.

Apparently it did go unnoticed during CFS testing, unfortunately.
Although now it has been brought to light, I think 2.6.24 is
supposed to be better (although it now gets worse on other things).

yep. For those who fear the 1 million lines of code flux of 2.6.24, 
here's a backport of the scheduler changes to 2.6.23:

  http://people.redhat.com/mingo/cfs-scheduler/devel/sched-cfs-v2.6.23.1-v22.1-rc0.patch

Lorenzo, could you please try that report back your reports? Thanks,

	Ingo
