Subject: [PATCH 0/1] virtiofsd: Do not use a thread pool by default
Date: Wed, 10 Feb 2021 13:27:43 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210210182744.27324-1-vgoyal@redhat.com> (raw)

Hi,

This is a proposal to not use a thread pool by default. It hurts
performance in most of the cases. Hence lets switch default so
that most of the users get better performance out of the box.

I have run virtiofs-tests with and without thread pool and posted
results here.

https://github.com/rhvgoyal/virtiofs-tests/tree/master/performance-results/feb-10-2021

One can notice, that except few cases, results are much better with
no thread pool.

Vivek
