User-Level API Performance

User-level API (receiving) throughput
- Experiment configuration:
- Myrinet API performance was measured at memory-to-memory level between two Sun SPARC 20/71 stations
interconnected through an 8-port Myrinet switch.
- ATM API performance was measured at memory-to-memory level between two Sun SPARC 20/71 stations
interconnected through a 4-port FORE ASX-200 switch.
- Device driver software:
- Myrinet 2.0c
- FORE System ATM SBA-200 3.0.1
- Tools:
- Tabulated performance results
- High (Myrinet) user-level API throughput indicates the potentail performance improvement
that user-level protocol implementation can achieve.
