I was looking around on google web, google groups, lkml digests, Intel.com, RedHat, SuSe, SGI.com, osdl.com, etc for some benchmarks of recent 2.4.x kernels, say 2.4.x > 16, with references to SMP scalability problems or successes, etc. Mainly centering around 4-way/8-way x86 testing in terms of memory bandwidth/utilization, threading performance, etc.
I've not found much in my search so far, and thought at this point it might be best to ask on this list to help shorten the search a bit, if possible. Of the documents I do have, they're more marketing based and not really *technology* based or touch very heavily as to generic benchmarking of a standard Linux kernel on SMP.
I'm hoping to create a white-paper internally, and hopefully externally at some point, which can be maintained so others don't have to do the same arduous task of trying to find recent data as it pertains to said statistics.
Any help as to recent documentation of this nature would be *overly* appreciated!
In addition to this info, I'm trying to gather information as it pertains to the scalability of Linux kernels on 4/8-way x86 systems versus Solaris Sparc 4/8-way systems with measurements of the same statistics.
I fear I'm searching for a document which does not exist. TIA.
