where the (x,y) after zaphod means (max_ia_bonus, max_tpt_bonus) and "d"
means default. I had to kill a few significant digits to squeeze it
into 71 columns. Overall statistics are extracted from the schedstats
data. In the "Build Statistics" "CPU" is the sum of the user and sys
times and "SYS" is the percentage of that which was sys time (as I feel
that is a better thing to compare than raw sys times).
I was intrigued by the fact that zaphod(d,d) and zaphod(d,0) take longer
in real time but use less cpu. I was assuming that this meant that some
other job was getting some cpu but the schedstats data doesn't support
that. Also it wouldn't make sense anyway as you'd expect jobs doing the
same amount of work to use roughly the same amount of cpu. My latest
theory is that your machine has hyper threads and this artifact is
caused by the mechanism in the scheduler for handling tasks with
differing priority in sibling hyper thread channels. Does your system
have hyper threads?
