Presumably this is well known, I an just a newcomer
to networking and I could not guess it would behave
this way.
It's not well known; with modern hardware (P3 and newer) you should
easily be able to saturate a 100Base-TX network (ie get full
bandwidth). Why else would all modern machines come with 1Gb
networking cards ?
Not all network hardware is created equal; some Ethernet chips have
trouble running at full speed (I seem to recall older RTL8xxx parts,
but it's been a while.
Is there some settings I should change? One possibillity
seems to be to open several sockets on different ports
simultaneously to increase the throughput.
The kernel socket layer should never be the bottleneck on non-ancient hardware.
Is there something wrong in what I do?
Do you have a short piece of code that shows this behaviour ? A
standalone program would be best.
To be able to run at 96 khz with fft1 transfer it seems
I will have to use at least 6 sockets in parallel with
different port numbers.
That should never happen.
Trying to find some hints on the Internet I came across this:
http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/UserInfo/Resources/Hardware/IBMp690/IBM/usr/share/man/info/en_US/a_doc_lib/aixbman/prftungd/2365c93.htm
It seems to indicate that I should send much larger packets???
(a multiple of 4096 bytes 'header' included)
That's for a completely different operating system, and has nothing
to do with the way Linux works.
JDB.
