Real-time scheduling performance can be critical for particular applications. It’s very important to know the application’s performance requirements and to know if the real-time characteristics of Real Time Linux can meet those requirements. This presentation goes through a specific example of forming a characteristic workload, specifying the way the workload is generated, developing methods for collecting quantitative data for comparison, collecting the data and comparing the results. After seeing this presentation, a developer will be able to perform the same steps in order to have confidence that real-time Linux can meet their specific performance requirements.
