If figured the Connectathon test suite (cthon03) would be good since it has a large variety of tests and easy to run... But if there are other tests that would be good just let me know... Running cthon03 three times and using nfsstat to count the total number of rpc and access here are the numbers... Run 1 total calls access calls Original Code: 30230 1755 5% Andreas's Patch: 30181 1676 5% Latest Patch: 29671 1141 3% Run 2 total calls access calls Original Code: 30064 1755 5% Andreas's Patch: 30176 1676 5% Latest Patch: 29978 1141 3% Run 3 total calls access calls Original Code: 30286 1755 5% Andreas's Patch: 29978 1676 5% Latest Patch: 29410 1141 3% Note: It is not a cut/paste error that each test run had the same amount of access calls... the only number that really fluctuated was the number of getattrs.... that's why I only ran the tests three times... not much seem to be changing... I've attached the raw data pruned of the v2 stats... SteveD.
