Yes, you need to disable kernel debugging also. (you have recompiled libc after removing MALLOC_DEBUG, right?). Also, it looks like your comparisons have problems. You are changing the number of requests and request size. Finally, to what are you actually comparing the malloc performance to? Why are you trying to benchmark it? > 2008/11/19 Ivan Voras <ivoras_at_freebsd.org>: >> Channa wrote: >>> Hi, >>> >>> I am using FreeBSD malloc from the current working branch. >>> I hope its jemalloc. >>> >>> I tested it on a single CPU machine i could get the following results >>> >>> # ./malloc-test 1024 10000000 4 >>> >>> Starting test... >>> Thread -1096811184 adjusted timing: 102.369100 seconds for 10000000 >>> requests of 1024 bytes. >>> Thread -1101005488 adjusted timing: 103.212512 seconds for 10000000 >>> requests of 1024 bytes. >>> Thread -1098908336 adjusted timing: 103.491399 seconds for 10000000 >>> requests of 1024 bytes. >>> Thread -1094714032 adjusted timing: 103.605124 seconds for 10000000 >>> requests of 1024 bytes. >>> >>> I checked the result in the FreeBSD mailing list link given below: >>> >>> http://unix.derkeiler.com/Mailing-Lists/FreeBSD/current/2005-12/msg00294.html >>> >>> The jemalloc gives very good results.
