So why not enhance deadline to be able to be used with cgroups instead of coming up with a new scheduler? > So we developed a new io-scheduler: tpps (Tiny Parallel Proportion > Scheduler).It dispatch requests > only by using their individual weight and total weight (proportion) therefore > it's simply and efficient. Can you give more details. Do you idle? Idling kills performance. If not, then without idling how do you achieve performance differentiation. > > Test case: fusionio card, 4 cgroups, iodepth-512 > > groupname weight > test1 1000 > test2 800 > test3 600 > test4 400 > What's the workload used for this? > Use tpps, the result is: > > groupname iops avg-rt(ms) max-rt(ms) > test1 30220 16 54 > test2 28261 18 56 > test3 26333 19 69 > test4 20152 25 87 > > Use cfq, the result is: > > groupname iops avg-rt(ms) max-rt(ms) > test1 16478 30 242 > test2 13015 39 347 > test3 9300 54 371 > test4 5806 87 393 How do results look like with cfq if this is run with slice_idle=0 and quatum=128 or higher. cfqq idles on 3 things. queue (cfqq), service tree and cfq group. slice_idle will disable idling on cfqq but not no service tree. If we provide a knob for that, then idling on service tree can be disabled too and then we will be left with group idling only and then it should be much better.
