The other half still seems to be related to the emulation faults that I fixed in the other patch:
> 0.49% [kernel] [k] page_fault > 0.06% [kernel] [k] emulate_vsyscall
Plus TLB flush costs:
> 0.13% [kernel] [k] generic_smp_call_function_interrupt > 0.08% [kernel] [k] flush_tlb_func
for which you should try the third patch I sent.
So please try all my fixes - the easiest way to do that would be to try the latest tip:master that has all related fixes integrated and send me a new perf top output - most page fault and TLB flush overhead should be gone from the profile.
Thanks,
Ingo
