Hi Peter,

please find the reproducer script attached. My command to reproduce the bug is:

./run-specjvm.sh --benchmarkThreads 32 --iterations 1 --iterationTime
180 --warmuptime 90 xml.transform xml.validation

I run just xml benchmarks to speed up the runtime.

Please check
 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120481#c9
for some details how to run the benchmark.

The benchmark needs Window manager to be installed to create graphs.
However, you can run the script from ssh terminal. I don't know
exactly why is that but I know that Python's matplot library has the
same requirements.

load/util averages resolution definition
2159197d66770ec01f75c93fb11dc66df81fd45b sched/core: Enable increased

I use following command to review the results produced by reproduce.sh script.

find ./ -name "*log" | xargs grep -H Score | grep xml.validation |
grep "[0-9]\{4\}[.][0-9]\{2\} ops/m"
