[[PageOutline]] = GENI Racks Performance = This page captures performance measurements for GENI Racks using !OpenFlow and Stitching Scenarios. The following topologies will be used with raw-pc/bare metal dedicated hosts: * Site Confirmations test for multi-site !OpenFlow connections over Meso-scale: * New IG Site to GPO IG, GPO EG, Utah PG * New EG Site to GPO IG, GPO EG, Utah PG * Site Confirmations test for !OpenFlow connection over AL2S: * New IG Site to GPO IG, GPO EG, Utah PG * New EG Site to GPO IG, GPO EG, Utah PG * Site Stitching Confirmation test via stitched VLAN: * New IG Site to GPO IG * New IG Site to GPO EG Bare Metal * New EG Site to GPO IG * New EG Site to GPO EG Bare Metal For details about the performance tests see the [wiki:GENIRacksHome/Performance#TestMethodology Test Methodology] section. = Performance Results = <<>>> == Test Methodology == Test Characteristics: - All test hosts are dedicate hosts (bare metal/raw-pc) - All results are captured for default bandwidth allocation (100Mb/s shaped), unless otherwise stated. - All results collected between 2014-01-xxx and xxx??? Iperf TCP measurements captured in this page have the following assumptions: - All results are for a 60 second test run. - for !OpenFlow scenarios, traffic is exchanged to establish data flows before measurement test runs are executed. - iperf '1 client' scenario command: 'iperf -c dest_host -t 60' - iperf '5 clients' scenario command: 'iperf -c dest_host -t 60 -P 5' - iperf '10 clients' scenario command: 'iperf -c dest_host -t 60 -P 10' Iperf UDP measurements captured in this page have the following assumptions: - Each test run is 60 seconds. - UDP measurements between racks requested a bandwidth of 100 Mbits/sec, if results showed that 100Mb/s was possible, then increased to 1Gb/s. - UDP measurements within a rack requested a bandwidth of 1Gbits/sec for test run = Historical Performance Data = Various effort have captured performance for GENI Racks, following is a list of earlier pages that have capture some aspect of performance with OpenVZ, Xen and dedicated hosts.
