There are a number of test tools floating about. reaim, orasim, osdb, others. A number of them are fairly crufty and toy-like, but still more useful than microbenchmarks, and they permit others to evaluate patches and to perform further optimisation. It's in everyone's interest that we get away from a test which has such dopey restrictions. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
