I had an number but lost it so I should set up it in my KVM machine :(
And I needed old kernel 3.7.0 for testing vma-based approach.
DRAM:2G, CPU : 12
kernel 3.7.0
jemalloc: 20527 records/s
jemalloc vma based approach : 5360 records/s
vrange call made worse because every thread stuck with mmap_sem.
kernel 3.11.0
jemalloc: 21176 records/s
jemalloc vroot tree approach: 103637 records/s
It could enhance 5 times.
