Hi All, I'm trying to analyze the performance of Linux Kernel. I need to compare this with VxWorks performance. What are the performance benchmarks do we have to take?. How can we test the efficiency of the features provided by the OSes like Scheduling, Mem. Management, VM, network buffers (this

Thanks Joel, but m not sure on how i can use ftrace. as both OSes may have different calls to compare... Bruce, yes, even i have to handle those things..i mentioned to just name a few..How can we test context switching and interrupt latency?. Are there any tools for this?. I just saw netperf to
