Linux kernel compile benchmarks have been run on a SuSE Linux 7.0 pentium class system with kernel 2.2.18 and with RSBAC version 1.1.0. Three benchmark runs each, in single user mode right after boot, produced the following average times:

Kernel type   Total time   Kernel + User  Kernel time   User/Process time
Clean kernel   1858s   1857s   69s   1788s
RSBAC without modules   1884s (+1.3%)   1877s (+1.1%)   82s (+18.8%)  1795s (+0.4%)
RSBAC with FF, AUTH, RC, ACL modules   1967s (+5.9%)   1959s (+5.5%)   167s (+142%) 1792s (+0.2%)
