Hi, The axfer in alsa-utils has test programs for internal modules and overall time to execute them takes much. The issue is filing in github repository[1]. It comes from three causes: 1. file I/O operations are done in file system for actual storage 2. Some cases operate much audio data frames (over 4MB, approx.) 3. much test iteration count (so simple...) This patchset uses shm by memfd_create(2) for the cause 1. In addition, the number of maximum audio data frame to test is reduced as well as the number of samples per frame. I got benchmark with berow machine environment. * AMD Ryzen 5 2400G * memory total 30823852 KB * linux-image-5.8.0-44-generic on Ubuntu 20.04 amd64 * ext4 on SATA SSD As a result: |container| mapper | | test | test | ================== | ======= | ======= | Current | 112 min | 5 min | +shm | 58 min | 50 sec | +maximum reduction | 38 min | - | +iter reduction | 4 min | - | In my opinion, the issue comes from package build server in each distribution. 5 min for test execution is not so worse time. Finally, test programs run on shm and commit c3f2344b7209 is reverted[1] since it's useless now. (I have free time at last from reverse-engineering work to analyze protocols of RME Fireface series[1], and start to solve stacked issues.)
