Subject: Floating point vs Integer performance
Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2007 15:18:44 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1173730724.7220.5.camel@localhost> (raw)
I ran some benchmarks inside of KVM-12 on my system and outside of KVM
(no virtualization on my system). I found that floating point
performance when running both with and without KVM was approximately the
same, but integer performance in KVM was about 25% of what I get when
running the test outside of KVM. These were tests using Dhrystone 2 and
Double Precision Whetstone on a Core 2 Duo T7200 processor.
Any thoughts on why the integer and floating point performance appears
to differ so much?
