I believe the topics are dissimilar and relevant enough to justify both: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------- PROPOSAL FOR LINUX BENCHMARK AUTOMATION This BOF will include a discussion on Linux benchmark automation. We will discuss the features needed to provide an effective benchmark automation process for Linux. This will include, defining the configuration, input files, benchmark execution, output files, etc. We will also discuss the types of benchmarks that are tailored for rapid execution and results analysis, for maximum development impact. PROPOSAL FOR LINUX PERFORMANCE Linux changes occur very quickly in the open source community. There is a strong need to quickly collect and share performance data and analysis. However, there may be some instances where good, quality performance data collection and analysis take longer than the short turnaround required for maximum impact regarding newly released patches. We plan to discuss the most effective methodology for impacting Linux performance in a rapidly changing Linux open source community environment. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------- Please reply immediately so we can quickly submit them to OLS?
