Re: [Xen-users] Re: [Xen-devel] Release 0.8.5 of GPL PV drivers forWindo
Isn't these 100 mbps or 1000 mbps speeds funny numbers for today's CPU
power? I mean, somewhere in the design, there's something wrong that forces
us to make possibly too many context switches between DomU, Hypervisor and
Dom0. ???
Emre
what, something like the 1500 byte maximum transmission unit (MTU) from
back in the days when 10 MILLION bits per second was so insanely fast we
connected everything to the same cable!? (remember 1200 baud modems?) Yes,
there might be some "design" decisions that don't work all that well
today.
AFAIK, XEN can't do oversize (jumbo) frames, that would be a big help for
a lot of things (iSCSI, ATAoE, local network )... but even so, AFAIK it
would only be a relatively small improvement (jumbo frames only going up
to about 8k AFAIK).
