Well at least in the short term we've nearly doubled the speed one step at a time :-) What is the SD card you are using and are they the same? I suspect that will have some effect too. You'd also need to look at the patch set Debian uses, with 3.13 we're pretty close to mainline in terms of the patch set and other than the OPP dtb patch there's nothing there that should really have much effect on performance. My guess would possibly be something DMA related, or maybe Debian has a patch that improved memory timings, or similar. What sort of things does pystone measure? I've never used it. Can you get it to break the tests it does down so you can compare the different components of the test, this might give us a better idea where to look. What about one of the other test suites like phoronix-test-suite? Peter ___ arm mailing list arm@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm

The BBB is booting with 3.13rc8 with no patches but there's a few issues I need to resolve this week with USB so I'll review that for the BB patchset to make sure it's there. Is it queued to go upstream for 3.14? Peter ___ arm mailing list arm@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm

As I reported earlier, using a Debian image runs (more than) 2x faster, so it might be possible to analyze it, looking at what they did/use (both Fedora and Debian are booted from SD, the stock eMMC is not changed). -- --Jos Vos --X/OS Experts in Open Systems BV | Phone: +31 20 6938364 --Amsterdam, The Netherlands| Fax: +31 20 6948204 ___ arm mailing list arm@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
