I must say that based on a small amount of performance testing the
benefits of the cache warmness thing are disappointing. Maybe 1% if
you squint. Martin, could you please do a before-and-after on the
NUMAQ's, double check that it is actually doing the right thing?
Seems to work just fine:
2.5.38-mm1 + my original hot/cold code.
Elapsed: 19.798s User: 191.61s System: 43.322s CPU: 1186.4%
2.5.39-mm1
Elapsed: 19.532s User: 192.25s System: 42.642s CPU: 1203.2%
And it's a lot more than 1% for me ;-) About 12% of systime
on kernel compile, IIRC.
