* each test was done 7 times, with the lowest and highest thrown away.
* due to high values of data and streaming usage pattern caching was
unable to affect results, so it was ignored.
test A:
"time find / -xdev" + (standard junk eating ~6% cpu (top procinfo))
descr: extremely low VM load, mostly IO dependent
test B:
"time find / -xdev | grep --regexp="\/" | xargs echo" + background mpg123 +
+ standard junk described above
descr: low, although higher than A, vm load (nearly absolutely no swap)
Results:
