Well, before you do that, why not give CPU frequency scaling a go. falko Mon, 27 Aug 2007 11:58:59 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-benchmark-your-system-cpu-file-io-mysql-with-sysbench sysbench is a benchmark suite which allows you to quickly get an impression about system performance which is important if you plan to run a database under intensive load. This article explains how to benchmark your CPU, file IO, and MySQL performance with sysbench. falko Sun, 22 Jul 2012 10:20:14 GMT http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-limit-cpu-usage-of-a-process-with-cpulimit-debian-ubuntu This tutorial shows how you can limit the CPU usage of a process with the tool cpulimit on Debian/Ubuntu. cpulimit is a simple program that attempts to limit the CPU usage of a process (expressed in percentage, not in cpu time). This is useful to control batch jobs, when you don't want them to eat too much CPU. It does not act on the nice value or other scheduling priority stuff, but on the real CPU usage. Also, it is able to adapt itself to the overall system load, dynamically and quickly. falko Mon, 14 Sep 2009 09:54:04 GMT
