There was no difference. > Well, arguably running 4 threads on a 80-way machine is not quite the same as running the same 4 threads on 4-way or 8-way machine. Unless you actually bind your test threads to a specific CPUs, on a bigger system scheduler is free to migrate your thread on another CPU if all 4 are spinning, this might not the option for smaller box. I suggest you at very least re-run your benchmark on a virtual machine with small CPUs count assigned, it should be quite easy to do so on your monster box. -Maxim _______________________________________________ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
