The fact that it seems to fluctuate pretty wildly makes me wonder
how stable the numbers are.
I can't resist myself from bragging. The high point in the fluctuation
might be because someone is working hard trying to make 2.6 kernel run
faster. Hint hint hint ..... ;-)
Heh. How do you explain the low-point? If there's somebody out there
working hard on making it run slower, I want to whack the guy ;)
If it is doing a lot of mapping/unmapping (or fork/exit), then that
might explain why 2.6.11 is worse.
Fortunately there are more patches to improve this on the way.
Kernel profiles would be useful if possible.
