I've been creating simfs and ploop based containers and exercising them in
different ways. While the ploop-based containers are basically working, in
my testing a ploop-based CT seems to require more resources than an
equivalent simfs-based CT. On my modest 32 bit test rig with 1 GB RAM, I've
been running dbench on simfs based CTs and looking at performance with new
kernel versions. But when running dbench tests on a ploop based CT with the
same resources, it has not been able to finish because the machine runs out
of resources, performance slows to a crawl and even host processes are
killed off.
I'll try to get some more memory for this machine for further testing.
Regards,
Joe

I'm running slabtop every 30 seconds during a dbench run and the thing that
is growing the fastest and taking the lion's share is biovec-256 - you can
see it growing at 30 second intervals.

Exactly. It's fixed in next kernel version. Sorry for that.
Btw, when comparing performance be aware that disk performance depends a lot on placement. Disk beginning is typically around 2x faster.
