Hi,
2007/5/27, Con Kolivas <[email protected]>:
New test release:
http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/pre-releases/2.6.22-rc3/2.6.22-rc3-ck1/
This is a resync with newer -rc and contains the updated swap prefetch code.
With this patch there is a stunning difference with the no swap
prefetch case on my system. With previous SP the difference was
around 2 seconds, now is more than 7 seconds.
Swap Prefetch OFF
