I actually saw improved performance with ULE over 4BSD for super-smack. What were the parameters you used for your testing? These were mine: super-smack ./select-key.smack 10 10000 super-smack ./update-select.smack 10 10000 I ran them again to confirm (10 runs each, averaged): 4BSD: super-smack ./select-key.smack 10 10000 : 55235.3 super-smack ./update-select.smack 10 10000 : 17029 ULE: super-smack ./select-key.smack 10 10000 : 65758.5 super-smack ./update-select.smack 10 10000 : 17366.7 So select-key is 19% faster! The numbers I had from 6.2 (4BSD, with libmap.conf set up to map libpthread to libthr): select-key: 50177.34 update-select: 14598.61 So either way, RELENG_7 is faster than 6.2 for super-smack, at least for me. And ULE here is quite a bit faster for select-key.
