[Bradford] [Talk for Monday] Tales of Linux Micro-benchmarks

[Matt Fleming]

Folks,

If there is some free time I'd like to do a talk on when
micro-benchmarks can be a good/bad idea, and some of the interesting
results I've seen this past year while working on the performance team
at SUSE.

It is mainly aimed at system level micro-benchmarks from the
perspective of the Linux kernel, but the case studies generalise quite
well up/down the software stack.

It'll be short, but hopefully amusing and informative.
