With the patch, slub's performance penalty was reduced to 4.38%. This is great progress. Can you think of anything else worth trying? -- Intel are signing my paycheques ... these opinions are still mine "Bill, look, we understand that you're interested in selling us this operating system, but compare it to ours. We can't possibly take such a retrograde step." -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.
