Fairness and Interactivity of Three CPU Schedulers in Linux
TL;DR: This paper systematically analyzes and measure fairness, interactivity and multi-processors performance of three schedulers: O(1), RSDL and CFS, by using micro, synthesis and real application benchmarks, and presents some ideas for developing future CPU Schedulers.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
CFS Optimizations to KVM Threads on Multi-Core Environment
TL;DR: The results indicate the scheduling optimizations introduced in CFS can improve the overall system performance and can provide useful advices to KVM developers and virtualization data center administrators.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lock-contention-aware scheduler: A scalable and energy-efficient method for addressing scalability collapse on multicore systems
TL;DR: Experimental results suggest that the proposed lock-contention-aware scheduler is able to remove scalability collapse completely and sustains the maximal throughput of the spin-lock-based system for most applications.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
OSMark: A benchmark suite for understanding parallel scalability of operating systems on large scale multi-cores
Yan Cui,Yu Chen,Yuanchun Shi +2 more
TL;DR: Evaluations on AMD 32-core machine with Linux as its OS indicate that most of benchmarks in OSMark scale bad, and Linux kernel source code analysis and performance data reveal that kernel synchronization primitives protecting the shared data are the main bottlenecks limiting parallel scalability.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Scalability comparison of commodity operating systems on multi-cores
TL;DR: This paper evaluates and compares the parallel scalability of three commodity operating systems (Linux, Solaris and FreeBSD) on an AMD 32-core platform and finds that no operating system scales totally better than another for microbenchmarks.
