-The files in this directory support controlled benchmarking of the ACE
-synchronization mechanisms.
-
- These mechanisms include:
-
- . Mutexes
- . Reader/writer locks
- . Condition variables
- . Semaphores
- . Tokens
- . Adaptive lockings
-
-There are additional tests that measure the memory bandwidth under the
-following conditions:
-
- . User memory-to-memory copying of data within a single thread
- . User memory-to-kernel-to-user memory copying via pipes
- between separate processes, as well as between separate
- threads in the same process
-
-There are many options available for this module that can be put into
-svc.conf files. See the Performance_Test_Options.[Chi] file for more
-details. Some reasonable options to use to run the tests are:
-
- -v -B -s 15
- -v -n 4 -t 4 -s 15
-
-You should experiment with other options as you see fit. Note that on
-Solaris, you should always make sure that you have more than 1 LWP (by
-using either the -B or the -n options) since otherwise the program may
-get into an infinite loop due to the semantics of SunOS unbound
-threads... (This may no longer be the case.)
-
-
-Available Options in Performance_Test module:
-=============================================
-
-Thread Creation:
-----------------
- -B: Create thread with THR_BOUND
- -D: Create thread with THR_DETACHED
- -N: Create thread with flag THR_NEW_LWP
- -n: Set # of lwp's (default is 0)
- -t: Set # of threads contending the lock (default is 4)
-
-Run Test:
----------
- -s: Set testing duration (in seconds, default is 100)
- -T: Enable/disable tracing.
-
-Misc:
------
- -p: Toggle whether summary is printed
- -e: Perform eager exit (without cleaning up)
- -M: Set message size in pipe_[proc|thr]_test
-
-Reserved Flags:
