[Bug 118765] Re: feisty generic kernel performing worse than i386
The situation seems to have improved but the bug is still active. The feisty-generic kernel boot process is still much slower than feisty-386. Also frequency scaling does still not work. I still believe this is related to something consuming/blocking CPU cycles, so only a small number of cycles are available for actual work. That is why the CPU frequency can never be scaled down. I have filed a separate bug for the CPU frequency scaling problem, but I very much believe they are related!

[Bug 118765] Re: feisty generic kernel performing worse than i386
I checked again for frequency scaling and came up with a new theory to the bad generic kernel performance. cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors reveals this: powersave ondemand userspace conservative performance When I switch through the governors CPU frequencies are actually scaled. However either max or min are used (I checked scaling_available_frequencies and there are the same frequencies defined as with the 386 kernel, where frequency scaling works fine). ondemand and performance governor lead to the max frequency used all time and powersave does lead to the min frequency to be used all time. I think userspace resulted in min frequency as well. My theory for the slow boots is now, that when the kernel boots min frequency is used and as soon as acpid, ... are started max frequency is used. What the reason for all this is, I still can't imagine. -- feisty generic kernel performing worse than i386 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/118765 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
