| 内容記述 | The present discussion of methods for quantifying multiprogramming (MP) overhead on a computer system illustrates two such techniques, respectively for quantifying MP overheads' lower bound and determining the MP overload of real workloads, in light of the percentage of parallel processing time that is consumed by MP overhead on Alliant multiprocessors. Kernel lock spinning is found to be a major factor in MP overhead, which accounts for more than half of total system overhead. It is noted that parallel environments' MP overhead is not statistically dependent on the number of parallel jobs undergoing multiprogramming. |
