Subject: 2.6.14-rc5-np1
Date: Wed, 26 Oct 2005 18:24:26 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <435F3D3A.8080304@yahoo.com.au> (raw)

ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/npiggin/patches/2.6.14-rc5-np1/

2.6.14-rc5-np1 includes Hugh's pagefault scalability work and my
lockless pagecache and RCU radix tree work (which is getting stable).

Also, some straight-line performance increases for mm/ which are
worth about 5% kernel residency on kbuild on UP, and about 7.5% on
SMP on a P4 Xeon.

And some various small improvements to corner cases in the radix tree
code.

Performance testing and results would be interesting, on big machines
or small.
