Hi.
I have noticed that Cygwin's spinlock goes into heavy sleeping code
for each spin. It seems it would be a good idea to actually try to
spin a bit first. There is this 'pause' instruction which let's the
CPU make such busy loops be less busy. Here is a patch to do this.
Hi.
I have noticed that Cygwin's spinlock goes into heavy sleeping code
for each spin. It seems it would be a good idea to actually try to
spin a bit first. There is this 'pause' instruction which let's the
CPU make such busy loops be less busy. Here is a patch to do this.
