[solved] Qt5.3.1 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS <> Ubuntu Core 14.04 LTS (both 64bit) performance difference
-
Hi everybody,
I have got a Qt 5 application that I build in Ubuntu 14.04 64bit and Ubuntu Core 14.04 64bit and I see a difference of about 50% performance between the 2. The one in the full ubuntu uses about 50% and the one in the ubuntu core uses about 100%.
So I started investigating the difference between the 2 and what I noticed is that when I do LDD in the full and in the core, I get a different output:

libresolv.so.2now the difference between the 2 is that:
- core uses
- libz.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1 (0x00007fef6a5e6000)
- full uses
- libgthread-2.0.so.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgthread-2.0.so.0 (0x00007f45cd83f000
- otherwise the same
So my question is twofold:
- can this be a performance difference because the one does not use gthread?
- why different ldd output on same application and binary?
Thanks in advance,
Kind regards,
Tim
result: it appeared to have been the AMD FGLRX driver

Hi,
Do you mean "CPU usage" rather than "performance"?
[quote]So my question is twofold: – can this be a performance difference because the one does not use gthread?[/quote]It's hard to say, but it's possible. You need to tell us the hardware specs of both PCs.
[quote] why different ldd output on same application and binary?[/quote]Because Ubuntu and Ubuntu Core contain different packages.

Hi,
they are the same PC exact same hardware.
indeed i mean CPU usage.
after some careful checking i suspecting the AMD fglrx driver for the performance drop.
