2018-11-27 Thread Huang, Ying
is commit, the first process exited at 203s. That is, this commit makes memory allocation more fair among processes, so that processes proceeded at more similar speed. But this raises system memory footprint too, so triggered much more swap, thus lower benchmark score. In general, memory allocation fairness among processes should be a good thing. So I think the report should have been a "performance improvement" instead of "performance regression". Best Regards, Huang, Ying
