Re: Kernel 4.7rc3 - Performance drop 30-40% for SPECjbb2005 and SPECjvm2008 benchmarks against 4.6 kernel

Hi Peter,

the kernel I got with bisecting does not work - I'm getting kernel
panic during the boot.

In any case, the regression was introduced between
git bisect good 64b7aad
git bisect bad 2159197

This commit is good:
64b7aad - Ingo Molnar, 7 weeks ago : Merge branch 'sched/urgent' into
sched/core, to pick up fixes before applying new changes

This commit is bad:
2159197 - Peter Zijlstra, 8 weeks ago : sched/core: Enable increased
load resolution on 64-bit kernels

Could you please have a look?

Thanks a lot!
Jirka
