My use of glxgears was mainly intended to use something readily available, and which gave me the ability to make both subjective and objective evaluations.
kernel 2.6.21-cfs-v13 2.6.21-ck2Everyone seems to like ck2, this makes it look as if the video display
a) 194464 254669
b) 54159 124
would be really pretty unusable. While sd-0.48 does show an occasional
video glitch when watching video under heavy load, it's annoying rather
than unusable.
That's because the whole premise of your benchmark relies on a workload that yield()s itself to the eyeballs on most graphic card combinations when using glxgears. Your test remains a test of sched_yield in the presence of your workloads rather than anything else. If people like ck2 it's because in the real world with real workloads it is better, rather than on a yield() based benchmark. Repeatedly the reports are that 3d apps and games in normal usage under -ck are better than mainline and cfs.
