And I failed to update the Getattr 3 client performance. It is now updated.

Hi all,

Using the last code submitted to CFS, I reran the Lustre echo (diskless) tests using MXLND on MX-10G. The updated page is at:

https://mail.clusterfs.com/wikis/lustre/MX-10G

and it has a link to the original results.

As before, MXLND can nearly saturate the wire using a single client for read and write. Using 3 clients slightly increases the read and write performance, but there is not much room for an increase to begin with. ;-)

The big change is the drop in CPU usage. MXLND uses a single thread to handle completions and it can be set to block or poll on completions. I tested blocking, polling 5,000 times before blocking and polling 10,000 times before blocking. The blocking performance for metadata was better than the polling results. For reading and writing 1 MB messages, polling added 0.25% throughput but required much more CPU.
