AMCC suggested to set the PMU bit to 0 for best performace on the
|
||
|
|
PPC440 DDR controller. The 440er common DDR setup files (sdram.c &
|
||
|
|
spd_sdram.c) are changed accordingly. So all 440er boards using
|
||
|
|
these setup routines will automatically receive this performance
|
||
|
|
increase.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please see below some benchmarks done by AMCC to demonstrate this
|
||
|
|
performance changes:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
SDRAM0_CFG0[PMU] = 1 (U-boot default for Bamboo, Yosemite and Yellowstone)

This system uses 8 bytes per DOUBLE PRECISION word.

|
-------------------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
Array size = 2000000, Offset = 0
|
||
|
|
Total memory required = 45.8 MB.
|

|
|
Each test is run 10 times, but only
|

|
|
the *best* time for each is used.

-------------------------------------------------------------
|

|
Your clock granularity/precision appears to be 1 microseconds.
|
||
|
|
Each test below will take on the order of 112345 microseconds.
|
||
|
|
(= 112345 clock ticks)
|
||
|
|
Increase the size of the arrays if this shows that you are not getting
|
||
|
|
at least 20 clock ticks per test.
|

|

-------------------------------------------------------------
|

WARNING -- The above is only a rough guideline.

Setting PMU = 0 provides a noticeable performance improvement *2% to

5% improvement in memory performance.
|

|
|
*Improves the Mbit/sec for TTCP benchmark by almost 76%.
