tinymembench v0.3.9 (simple benchmark for memory throughput and latency) ========================================================================== == Memory bandwidth tests == == == == Note 1: 1MB = 1000000 bytes == == Note 2: Results for 'copy' tests show how many bytes can be == == copied per second (adding together read and writen == == bytes would have provided twice higher numbers) == == Note 3: 2-pass copy means that we are using a small temporary buffer == == to first fetch data into it, and only then write it to the == == destination (source -> L1 cache, L1 cache -> destination) == == Note 4: If sample standard deviation exceeds 0.1%, it is shown in == == brackets == ========================================================================== C copy backwards : 1098.1 MB/s (0.2%) C copy : 1095.4 MB/s C copy prefetched (32 bytes step) : 1094.7 MB/s C copy prefetched (64 bytes step) : 1095.0 MB/s C 2-pass copy : 945.5 MB/s C 2-pass copy prefetched (32 bytes step) : 945.7 MB/s C 2-pass copy prefetched (64 bytes step) : 945.6 MB/s (0.1%) C fill : 9735.4 MB/s --- standard memcpy : 1237.0 MB/s standard memset : 12925.5 MB/s ========================================================================== == Memory latency test == == == == Average time is measured for random memory accesses in the buffers == == of different sizes. The larger is the buffer, the more significant == == are relative contributions of TLB, L1/L2 cache misses and SDRAM == == accesses. For extremely large buffer sizes we are expecting to see == == page table walk with several requests to SDRAM for almost every == == memory access (though 64MiB is not nearly large enough to experience == == this effect to its fullest). == == == == Note 1: All the numbers are representing extra time, which needs to == == be added to L1 cache latency. The cycle timings for L1 cache == == latency can be usually found in the processor documentation. == == Note 2: Dual random read means that we are simultaneously performing == == two independent memory accesses at a time. In the case if == == the memory subsystem can't handle multiple outstanding == == requests, dual random read has the same timings as two == == single reads performed one after another. == ========================================================================== block size : single random read / dual random read, [MADV_NOHUGEPAGE] 1024 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 2048 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 4096 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 8192 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 16384 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 32768 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 65536 : 9.6 ns / 19.9 ns 131072 : 14.4 ns / 29.9 ns 262144 : 16.7 ns / 34.8 ns 524288 : 18.0 ns / 37.3 ns 1048576 : 18.6 ns / 38.6 ns 2097152 : 18.9 ns / 39.2 ns 4194304 : 23.3 ns / 48.0 ns 8388608 : 25.7 ns / 52.9 ns 16777216 : 71.7 ns / 139.9 ns 33554432 : 116.4 ns / 232.8 ns 67108864 : 141.5 ns / 283.0 ns block size : single random read / dual random read, [MADV_HUGEPAGE] 1024 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 2048 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 4096 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 8192 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 16384 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 32768 : 0.0 ns / 0.0 ns 65536 : 9.6 ns / 19.9 ns 131072 : 14.3 ns / 29.9 ns 262144 : 16.7 ns / 34.8 ns 524288 : 18.0 ns / 37.3 ns 1048576 : 18.6 ns / 38.6 ns 2097152 : 18.9 ns / 39.2 ns 4194304 : 23.3 ns / 48.0 ns 8388608 : 26.1 ns / 52.8 ns 16777216 : 71.2 ns / 144.6 ns 33554432 : 114.8 ns / 231.8 ns 67108864 : 140.6 ns / 282.6 ns
