Results

This topic describes not only the test results but also the methods we used to set up and run the tests together with any observations and conclusions.

Methodology
To compare the impact of the various rules for the cpuplugd daemon, a manually optimized setup was prepared.
cpuplugd configuration rules
This topic describes the impact of various rules for CPU and memory management with cpuplugd.
Dynamic runs
The tests in the previous sections are intended to determine the impact of the various rules. The next important question is how a system managed by cpuplugd reacts to load shifts.
Setup tests and variations
Four setup tests are described along together with their results and conclusions.
