On a dual Xeon, the user sustained uni/bi-directional data rate for the dual ported "E card" is quoted as 495/950 MB/s. http://www.myri.com/news/03a14/ This rate was for a GM 2.1 microbenchmark. Are there perf results for a GM sockets application or netperf unmodified on the "E card" - including throughput, cpu utilization, and latency ? I am assuming you can assign one IP address to the dual ports. Will the packets be distributed across both ports if TCP streaming to/from another dual card with a single ip address or TCP streaming to/from two other clients each with a single port "D" card using Sockets GM or just tcp/ip ? -Bill
