Hello Stephan, hello everybody,
I also did some performance tests. I put them on a web page so you can
have a look in order to compare with your results. The web page is
still under development and results needs a more accurate analysis but
it can give some hints. Here is the url:
http://www.bullopensource.org/xen/benchs.html
The compile tests are interesting. There is a variable being overlooked
by everyone -- the Xen scheduler. The SEDF scheduler is not necessarily
the best for every workload. Would you mind re-running the first part of
the tests (or all if you have the time), but use the BVT scheduler
instead? To set CPU weights you can use the cpu_weight variable in the
domain config file (ex. cpu_weight = "2"). libxc/xc_domain.c seems to
still use that method for setting the weight. Note it does not use
cpu_weight for SEDF. Also, in 3.0.2 you can run "xm sched-sedf domid" to
get settings, no need for the external sedf program.
I am running my own tests currently, but I don't create pretty
graphs/websites :)
Thank you,
Matt Ayres
