Hi, I ran lmbench 2.0.4 on a P3-500 with 384 MB ram box with the latest
Fedora Core 1 kernel (2.4.22-2188.nptl, 2.6.6 and 2.6.7-rc1 (CONFIG_REGPARM=y)
There seems to be regression in AF_UNIX/tcp bandwidth in 2.6.7-rc1
I did two runs per kernel
output from lmbench follows
cc: netdev in case this is of interest to networking hackers
