i just ran various benchmarks on an 8-way (8x 700 MHz Xeon, 4GB RAM):
AVG v2.6.24.slab v2.6.24.slub [ smaller is better ]
-----------------------------------------
mmap: 1052.66 1049.33 ( 0%)
ctx-2: 4.32 4.30 ( 0%)
select: 41.95 43.69 ( 4%)
proc-exec: 394.45 391.92 ( 0%)
hackbench-10: 1.12 2.99 (166%)
hackbench-20: 2.04 6.67 (226%)
hackbench-50: 5.03 17.50 (247%)
and hackbench overhead stands out, by a huge margin. Other stuff is
within measurement noise. Neither SLUB nor SLAB debugging was turned on,
all other debugging options were off too.
