Description
|
I see about 3% improvement of jbb2005 score on Core2Duo with
-XX:AllocatePrefetchLines=3 vs -XX:AllocatePrefetchLines=1 (default).
The time spent in arraycopy dropped from 96 sec to 26 sec:
-XX:AllocatePrefetchLines=1 :
96.508 100.00 96.508 4.67 96.508 4.67 *arrayof_jshort_disjoint_arraycopy
-XX:AllocatePrefetchLines=3 :
25.868 100.00 25.868 1.25 25.868 1.25 *arrayof_jshort_disjoint_arraycopy

Evaluation
|
Need the flag AllocatePrefetchLines to specify how many sequential cache lines
should be prefetched, the default is 1 as it is currently.
Need to modify vm_version files to detect cpu type and set the cache line size in bytes.
