Hallo,
After I installed the OFED (1.4 beta), I noticed a drop in TCP
performance via Infiniband: from 10 GBit/s to less than 8 GBit/s.
Is that "expected behaviour"? Is there a way to avoid this performance loss?
The HCA used in both test machines is a Mellanox Infinihost III Lx DDR
HCA. Both machines run OpenSuse 11 with a 2.6.25.16 Kernel.
Is it SDP or IPoIB?
What is the FW version you use?
