Subject: Memory performance  / Cache problem
Date: Mon, 12 Oct 2009 09:54:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091012075409.186580@gmx.net> (raw)

I found the memory performance of newer kernels are quit poor on an EVM-Omap3 board. It works with 2-6 times performance on the old 2.6.22 kernel from TI's PSP.

Possible reasons:
- problem in config the kernel (did omap3_evm_defconfig)
- problem in kernel
- kernel expects some settings from uboot, which are not done there

I have tried the 2.6.29rc3 (from TI's PSP) and the 2.6.31 from git-tree.
Both behave quite simular:

Transport in MByte:
  memcpy =   204.073, loop4 =   183.212, loop1 =    81.693, rand =
4.534

while the 22 kernel:
 memcpy =   453.932, loop4 =   469.934, loop1 =   125.031, rand =
29.631

Can someone give me help or can at least confirm that?
Best regards
Steffen
