Dell - Internal Use - Confidential What is needed is not only bundling which is a form of buffering, but also process overlap so that the transfers are held up to a point where the processing is more quiet And more cycles are available. Offloading to another processor using tux also accomplishes this. This buffering could involve a stop and wait type protocol with a retransmit feature. The transmit would have to be some form of permanent storage to do this. Queuing offers the opportunity to "bundle" in memory, but might result in message loss if some permanent storage is also not involved, when a process aborts.

If they are being bundled so that multiple events are sent in each request that will perform better but could result in losing all the events that are buffered.
