That happens because we now under-balance this workload a bit. To counter that effect, turn on NEWIDLE: wake-idle wake-idle+newidle ------------------------------------------------- 1: 830 834 +0.43% 2: 1391 1401 +0.65% 4: 3105 3091 -0.43% 8: 6021 6046 +0.42% 16: 10745 10736 -0.08% 32: 10150 10206 +0.55% 64: 9240 9533 +3.08% 128: 8252 8355 +1.24% 256: 8144 8384 +2.87% ------------------------------------------------- SUM: 57882 58591 +1.21% as a bonus this not only improves the many-clients case but also improves the (more important) rampup phase. sysbench is a workload that quickly breaks down if the scheduler over-balances, so since it showed an improvement under NEWIDLE this change is definitely good. --- diff --git a/include/linux/topology.h b/include/linux/topology.h index 4bb7074a2c3..24f3d2282e1 100644 --- a/include/linux/topology.h +++ b/include/linux/topology.h @@ -166,7 +166,9 @@ void arch_update_cpu_topology(void); .busy_idx = 3, \ .idle_idx = 3, \ .flags = SD_LOAD_BALANCE \ - | SD_SERIALIZE, \ + | SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE \ + | SD_WAKE_AFFINE \ + | SD_SERIALIZE, \ .last_balance = jiffies, \ .balance_interval = 64, \ }
