I haven't seen any real SMP machine yet with > 4 CPUs (we don't suport SuperDomes yet), so reducing the default maximum number of CPUs may speed up various bitop functions which depend on number of CPUs in the system. bload-o-meter on a typical 64-bit kernel shows: Data: add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 0/10 up/down: 0/-3724 (-3724) Total: Before=1910404, After=1906680, chg -0.19% Code: add/remove: 0/2 grow/shrink: 42/38 up/down: 2320/-3500 (-1180) Total: Before=11053099, After=11051919, chg -0.01% Signed-off-by: Helge Deller <deller@gmx.de> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
