Hi all, I'm a newbie to the cloud applications, and because it's pretty different from the traditional desktop workloads such as SPEC, I'd like to make sure that I have the correct setup.
Because most of the Cloudsuite applications adopt a server-client model, It seems that we need at least two machines, one running the server, and one running the client. However, because I don't have 10Gbit ethernet support, and the routing delay is beyond my control (running in AWS), is it acceptable to run both client and server on the same CPU, for the purpose of benchmarking? I can bind the client and server to different cores, but they might interfere each other in hardware resources such as cache and memory bandwidth. Please let me know what you think. Thank you very much for your help ! Best, Xiaodong -- Xiaodong Wang Computer Systems Laboratory Cornell University 356 Upson Hall 607-379-5421 [email protected]
