Re: [RFC PATCH v2] sched: Limit idle_balance()

[Preeti U Murthy]

Hi Json,

With V2 of your patch here are the results for the ebizzy run on
3.11-rc1 + patch on  a 1 socket, 16 core powerpc machine. Each ebizzy
run was for 30 seconds.

Number_of_threads         %improvement_with_patch
    4                        8.63
    8                        1.29
    12                       9.98
    16                      20.46

Let me know if you want me to profile any of these runs for specific
statistics.

Regards
Preeti U Murthy
