I got ebizzy and kernel compile run on powernv and powervm config. You
can find the numbers below. I did 10 iterations and only added stdev and
median below. I do find powernv do better with patch series.

ebizzy run
-----------
PowerNV (ebizzy -m -n 1000 -P -s 512000 -S 100 -t 100):
With patches, 10 iterations results records/sec.
stdev =	37.60
median = 7411.5

Without patch:
stdev = 23.071
median = 7350

PowerVM numbers(./ebizzy -m -n 1000 -P -s 512000 -S 100 -t 30):
With patch (no new hcalls):
stdev = 20.721
median = 6955.5
	
Without patch	
stdev =	35.049
median = 7081

kernel compile:(time -p)
---------------------------
PowerNV:
With patches:
Real	
----	
stdev = 1.624
median = 61.56
	
User:	
stdev =	61.204
median = 4816.73
	
Sys:	
stdev =	4.367
median = 387.575

Without patches:
Real:	
stdev =	1.318
median = 63.635
	
User:	
stdev =	50.531
median = 4820.51
	
	
Sys:	
stdev =	6.409
median = 389.765

PowerVM numbers:
-------------------
With patches (no new hcalls):
Real:	
stdev =	3.016
median = 442.745
	
	
User:	
stdev =	9.738
median = 5507.87
	
Sys:	
stdev =	0.223
median = 176.455

Witout patches:
Real:
stdev = 0.720
median = 442.445

User:
stdev = 8.621
median = 5501.615

Sys:
stdev = 0.189
median = 173.3
