The test was on 32 core (model: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X7560) HT disabled

Have you ever tried to get results with HT enabled?

This looks good. Are your ebizzy results consistent run to run
though?

Hmm, I wonder what 2.5x looks like. Also, the 3% improvement with
no overcommit is interesting. What's happening there? It makes
me wonder what < 1x looks like.
 
 
Hi Andrew,
I tried 2.5x case sort where I used 3 guests with 27 vcpu each on 32
core (HT disabled machine) and here is the output. almost no gain there.
             throughput avg    stdev
base:     1768.7458 MB/sec     54.044221
patched:  1772.5617 MB/sec     41.227689
gain %0.226
I am yet to try HT enabled cases that would give 0.5x to 2x performance
results.
