Hi Jonathan,
In doing performance work, I've noticed some weird results from
lowlevel-blt-bench. Often it has seemed that the RT results determined
the Kops/s almost entirely. I came across an instance of this today
which was particularly striking:
Before:
add_8888_8888 = L1: 47.01 L2: 36.84 M: 18.96 ( 33.14%) HT: 35.94
VT: 33.82 R: 30.64 RT: 19.36 ( 181Kops/s)
After:
add_8888_8888 = L1: 230.78 L2: 200.86 M: 90.48 (159.44%) HT: 48.41
VT: 45.46 R: 42.78 RT: 19.22 ( 181Kops/s)
L1/L2/M numbers are improved by ~5x. HT, VT, and R numbers are
improved by ~1.35x. RT doesn't change... neither does Kops/s.
What's going on here, and can we make the composite result more sensible?
Thanks,
Matt
