SubjectRe: [PATCH 1/1] mm: vmscan: Reduce throttling due to a failure to make progress
I tested this [1] patch on top of 5.16-rc2. It's the same test with 10 tails.

Summary:

2021-11-30 23:32:36,890: Stall times for the last 548.6s:

2021-11-30 23:51:48,969: Stall times for the last 919.4s:

In some cases stalls was very short, but in many cases stalls was long.
The result is still not good enough.

Summary:

2021-11-30 23:59:32,209: Stall times for the last 73.1s:
2021-11-30 23:59:32,209: -----------
2021-11-30 23:59:32,209: some cpu 0.4s, avg 0.5%

2021-11-30 23:59:32,210: full memory 3.1s, avg 4.2%

This is just an example of what a result close to the expected
result might be (especially note io pressure values).
