We hope others will find it useful and even want to add their own testsets. Generally we'll be more than pleased to add contributions to future releases. As was explained earlier, the Linux RT Benchmarking Framework (LRTBF) is a set of drivers and scripts for evaluating the performance of various real-time additions for the Linux kernel. Specifically, the LRTBF allows measuring the overall load imposed by the RT enhancement and its ability to deterministically respond to incoming interrupts. Initially, the LRTBF was used for evaluating Ingo Molnar's PREEMPT_RT patches and Philippe Gerum's I-pipe, but by releasing it under the GPL we hope its usefullness will extend beyond those initial tests. The LRTBF and all related information is found here: http://www.opersys.com/lrtbf/ Enjoy !
