I actually saw improved performance with ULE over 4BSD for
super-smack. What were the parameters you used for your testing? These
were mine:
super-smack ./select-key.smack 10 10000
super-smack ./update-select.smack 10 10000
I ran them again to confirm (10 runs each, averaged):
4BSD:
super-smack ./select-key.smack 10 10000 : 55235.3
super-smack ./update-select.smack 10 10000 : 17029
ULE:
super-smack ./select-key.smack 10 10000 : 65758.5
super-smack ./update-select.smack 10 10000 : 17366.7
So select-key is 19% faster!
The numbers I had from 6.2 (4BSD, with libmap.conf set up to map
libpthread to libthr):
select-key: 50177.34
update-select: 14598.61
So either way, RELENG_7 is faster than 6.2 for super-smack, at least
for me. And ULE here is quite a bit faster for select-key.
