I've upgraded 2.2.13-22mdk kernel with 2.2.13-29mdk kernel but now I see
in dmesg:
raid5: measuring checksumming speed
raid5: MMX detected, trying high-speed MMX checksum routines
pII_mmx : 745.236 MB/sec
p5_mmx : 774.954 MB/sec
8regs : 410.337 MB/sec
32regs : 236.220 MB/sec
using fastest function: p5_mmx (774.954 MB/sec)
insted of 879.??? MB/sec for p5_mmx.
Two questions:
1) this means that this kernel is slower (about 11%) than 2.2.13-22 or not ?
2) I'm sure have P][ why optimization for p5_mmx is better for me ?
Thanks.
