The paper that I mentioned last week, that contains some FreeBSD performance data, is about Hourglass, a user-level tool for measuring scheduling behavior. It'll appear in the FREENIX track of the USENIX general technical conference in June. There's a draft here: http://www.cs.utah.edu/~regehr/hourglass-040802.ps http://www.cs.utah.edu/~regehr/hourglass-040802.pdf I've tried to get all the technical details right, but have probably made some mistakes. I'm posting this draft in order to give people the opportunity to send me corrections now rather than flaming me later! Disclaimer #1: Most of the performance data in this paper was taken on Linux. The bias is due to the presence of lots of real-time enhanced versions of Linux, which created opportunities to show interesting effects while still making apples-apples comparisons. Disclaimer #2: For people reading this message in the archives: this draft will disappear a few days after this message is posted. The final copy of the paper will be available around April 16 2002 and will be linked to the same site where the Hourglass software is located: http://www.cs.utah.edu/~regehr/hourglass Thanks, John Regehr To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
