My expectation is that we just need good enough, not perfect, and that
seems to match what Juri is saying about the expectation that most of
the fine tuning is done via other knobs.
My expectation is that if a ballpark figure is good enough, it should be
possible to implement something trivial like bogomips / loop_per_jiffy
calculation.
I didn't really followed that, so I might be wrong here, but isn't
already happened a discussion about how we want/like to stop exposing
bogomips info or rely on it for anything but in kernel delay loops?
I meant that we could have a benchmark of that level of complexity,
rather than those specific values.

Mark.
