Investigation of Linux Performance/Responsiveness Regressions

Hey all you faithful readers. I recently saw this article and was shocked to realize that yes, I too have noticed *Linux* (not Ubuntu alone) become slower and less responsive with the latest kernel and gcc releases. So, I’ve decided to gather more hard data and pinpoint the precise cause of this slowdown. My findings will be updated here and on Phoronix, where I’ve posted a thread.

Thanks and feel free to contribute your findings and experiences.
