Is it possible to post whatever script that generates the graph (gnuplot?)
so people can compare the results they get to yours? It's when I realized
I didn't have that and would have to recreate one myself that my intention
to just run some quick results and ship them to you lost momentum and I
never circled back to it. It would be nice if you made it easier for
people to generate fancy results here as immediate gratification for them
(while of course just asking them to send the raw data).
I can run some tests on smaller Linux/Solaris systems to see if they don't
show a regression, that was my main concern about this experiment. Some
of the discussion that followed your original request for tests was kind
of confusing as far as how to interpret the results as well; I think I
know what to look for but certainly wouldn't mind some more guidance
there, too.
