Measurement of network speed from CPU board to alpha

Y.Sugaya 99/4/23

Speed of network one CPU to alpha is enough? (>3MB/s)

Can alpha collect data from all CPUs (>150 Mbps)

 

Fig.1: Speed from Force7V to alpha1200 via FastEther (data size 16MB)

Less than 3MB/s

Fig.2: Speed from Force7V to Sparc station 20 via FastEther (data size 160MB)

Faster than the case of alpha ?

Fig.3: Speed from Force7V, 8VT, CPU50.

Measurement of speed by sending together (2X7V, 8VT, CPU50).data size 160 MB.

8VT and CPU50 faster than 7V.

Alpha can collector data enough speed.
