  2. Load (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_(computing)

    The comparative study of different load indices carried out by Ferrari et al. [7] reported that CPU load information based upon the CPU queue length does much better in load balancing compared to CPU utilization. The reason CPU queue length did better is probably because when a host is heavily loaded, its CPU utilization is likely to be close ...

    time (Unix) - can be used to determine the run time of a program, separately counting user time vs. system time, and CPU time vs. clock time. [1] timem (Unix) - can be used to determine the wall-clock time, CPU time, and CPU utilization similar to time (Unix) but supports numerous extensions.

    It can also serve to investigate, measure, validate, or verify other quality attributes of the system, such as scalability, reliability, and resource usage. Performance testing is a subset of performance engineering, an emerging computer science practice which strives to build performance into the implementation, design, and architecture of a ...

  5. CPU time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPU_time

    CPU time (or process time) is the amount of time that a central processing unit (CPU) was used for processing instructions of a computer program or operating system. CPU time is measured in clock ticks or seconds. Sometimes it is useful to convert CPU time into a percentage of the CPU capacity, giving the CPU usage.

  6. Rate-monotonic scheduling - Wikipedia

    Therefore, a rough estimate when is that RMS can meet all of the deadlines if total CPU utilization, U, is less than 70%. The other 30% of the CPU can be dedicated to lower-priority, non-real-time tasks.

  7. Completely Fair Scheduler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completely_Fair_Scheduler

    It was the default scheduler of the tasks of the SCHED_NORMAL class (i.e., tasks that have no real-time execution constraints) and handled CPU resource allocation for executing processes, aiming to maximize overall CPU utilization while also maximizing interactive performance.

  8. Performance per watt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Performance_per_watt

    System designers building parallel computers, such as Google's hardware, pick CPUs based on their performance per watt of power, because the cost of powering the CPU outweighs the cost of the CPU itself. [2] Spaceflight computers have hard limits on the maximum power available and also have hard requirements on minimum real-time performance.

  9. Earliest deadline first scheduling - Wikipedia

    That is, EDF can guarantee that all deadlines are met provided that the total CPU utilization is not more than 100%. Compared to fixed-priority scheduling techniques like rate-monotonic scheduling, EDF can guarantee all the deadlines in the system at higher loading. Note that use the schedulability test formula under deadline as period.
