[KDE Eco] consulting about libc and kernel performance

[Joseph P. De Veaugh-Geiss]

Would someone in the KDE Eco community like to help out?

Enrique Barba Roque, a master's student at TU Delft with Luis Miranda da 
Cruz [1] and Thomas Durieux [2], has contacted me about research he is 
doing on energy hotspots and inefficiencies in different Linux 
distributions and libc implementations.

As he described it to me, in their experiments they have found 
inefficiencies in TCP communication in Alpine vs. Ubuntu, and they are 
unsure of how to explain them. Enrique would be interested in discussing 
some hypotheses with Linux experts in the KDE Eco communnity.

Is anyone here available and interested in having a meeting with him?

I have previously been in touch with Luis Cruz and his work overlaps 
nicely with what we are doing in our energy measurement lab and the 
research at the Umwelt Campus Birkenfeld.

Cheers,
Joseph
