我有一台配备 Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz CPU 和 2x4Gb DDR3 模块 1066MHz 的笔记本电脑。

我希望这个内存可以以 1067 MiB/sec 的速度运行，只要有两个 channel ，最大速度就是 2134 MiB/sec(如果操作系统内存调度程序允许) .

我制作了一个小型 Java 应用程序来测试:

private static final int size = 256 * 1024 * 1024; // 256 Mb
private static final byte[] storage = new byte[size];

private static final int s = 1024; // 1Kb
private static final int duration = 10; // 10sec

public static void main(String[] args) {
    long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
    Random rnd = new Random();
    byte[] buf1 = new byte[s];
    rnd.nextBytes(buf1);
    long count = 0;
    while (System.currentTimeMillis() - start < duration * 1000) {
        long begin = (long) (rnd.nextDouble() * (size - s));
        System.arraycopy(buf1, 0, storage, (int) begin, s);
        ++count;
    }
    double totalSeconds = (System.currentTimeMillis() - start) / 1000.0;
    double speed = count * s / totalSeconds / 1024 / 1024;
    System.out.println(count * s + " bytes transferred in " + totalSeconds + " secs (" + speed + " MiB/sec)");

    byte[] buf2 = new byte[s];
    count = 0;
    start = System.currentTimeMillis();
    while (System.currentTimeMillis() - start < duration * 1000) {
        long begin = (long) (rnd.nextDouble() * (size - s));
        System.arraycopy(storage, (int) begin, buf2, 0, s);
        Arrays.fill(buf2, (byte) 0);
        ++count;
    }
    totalSeconds = (System.currentTimeMillis() - start) / 1000.0;
    speed = count * s / totalSeconds / 1024 / 1024;
    System.out.println(count * s + " bytes transferred in " + totalSeconds + " secs (" + speed + " MiB/sec)");
}

我预计结果会低于 2134 MiB/秒，但我得到了以下结果:

17530212352 bytes transferred in 10.0 secs (1671.811328125 MiB/sec)
31237926912 bytes transferred in 10.0 secs (2979.080859375 MiB/sec)

速度接近 3 GiB/秒怎么可能？

最佳答案

这里有很多事情在起作用。

首先:formula for memory transfer rate of DDR3是

memory clock rate
× 4  (for bus clock multiplier)
× 2  (for data rate)
× 64 (number of bits transferred)
/ 8  (number of bits/byte)
=    memory clock rate × 64 (in MB/s)

对于 DDR3-1066(主频为 133⅓ MHz)，我们获得理论内存带宽8533⅓ MB/s 或 8138.02083333... MiB/s 表示单 channel ，17066⅔ MB/s，或 16276.0416666...MiB/s 表示双 channel 。

第二:传输一大块数据比传输许多小块数据要快。

第三:测试忽略了可能发生的缓存效果。

第四:如果要进行时间测量，应该使用System.nanoTime()。这种方法更精确。

这是测试程序的重写版本¹。

import java.util.Random;

public class Main {

  public static void main(String... args) {
    final int SIZE = 1024 * 1024 * 1024;
    final int RUNS = 8;
    final int THREADS = 8;
    final int TSIZE = SIZE / THREADS;
    assert (TSIZE * THREADS == THREADS) : "TSIZE must divide SIZE!";
    byte[] src = new byte[SIZE];
    byte[] dest = new byte[SIZE];
    Random r = new Random();
    long timeNano = 0;

    Thread[] threads = new Thread[THREADS];
    for (int i = 0; i < RUNS; ++i) {
      System.out.print("Initializing src... ");
      for (int idx = 0; idx < SIZE; ++idx) {
        src[idx] = ((byte) r.nextInt(256));
      }
      System.out.println("done!");
      System.out.print("Starting test... ");
      for (int idx = 0; idx < THREADS; ++idx) {
        final int from = TSIZE * idx;
        threads[idx]
            = new Thread(() -> {
          System.arraycopy(src, from, dest, 0, TSIZE);
        });
      }
      long start = System.nanoTime();
      for (int idx = 0; idx < THREADS; ++idx) {
        threads[idx].start();
      }
      for (int idx = 0; idx < THREADS; ++idx) {
        try {
          threads[idx].join();
        } catch (InterruptedException e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
        }
      }
      timeNano += System.nanoTime() - start;
      System.out.println("done!");
    }
    double timeSecs = timeNano / 1_000_000_000d;

    System.out.println("Transfered " + (long) SIZE * RUNS
        + " bytes in " + timeSecs + " seconds.");

    System.out.println("-> "
        + ((long) SIZE * RUNS / timeSecs / 1024 / 1024 / 1024)
        + " GiB/s");
  }
}

这样，尽可能多地减少“其他计算”，并且(几乎)只测量通过 System.arraycopy(...) 的内存复制率。该算法在缓存方面可能仍然存在问题。

对于我的系统(双 channel DDR3-1600)，我得到大约 6 GiB/s，而理论限制大约是 25 GiB/s(包括 DualChannel )。

As was pointed out by Nick Mertin ，JVM 引入了一些开销。因此，预计您无法达到理论极限。

_{¹ 旁注:要运行程序，必须给 JVM 更多的堆空间。就我而言，4096 MB 就足够了。}
