Hi!

Does the preemptible RCU implementation have better performance (lower
latency?) than the classic RCU implementation on embedded uniprocessor
systems? I can't find any information about this in Documentation/.

Regards,
Patrik Kluba

I would expect that you would get the best latencies on UP by using
the -rt patchset and preemptible RCU.  I don't know that anyone has
carefully measured the combination of vanilla CONFIG_PREEMPT kernel
and preemptible RCU on UP.
