Re: Performance with network card at 10Gb

hi

i upgrade the driver and the performance are improved by about 45%passing from 1.3Gb/s to 1.9Gb/s. I check the hardware and i saw that thepcie bus of the server Xen are 2.0 and the pci of the OpenBSD server isnot specified, i suppose isn't pcie 2.0. I am looking for anotherhardware with pci 2.0.

hi
i have performance problem with an intel X520 DA2. I use this networ at 10Gb to 
do the backup of some virtual Xen machine. The two Xen server using the same 
network card and using iperf with them, the value is approximately 5-6 Gb/s. 
The performance between Xen and OpenBSD 5.1 are at most 1.5 Gb/s. I have tried 
some changes to /etc/sysctl file and the  mtu size, but without positive 
result. The OpenBSD server is an HP 380 GL.
anybody can help me?
thanks Massimo

hello,

could you try current, there is mikeb's "performance" patch for ix
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/sys/dev/pci/if_ix.c

is your ix card in pcie 2.0 x8 ?
http://ark.intel.com/products/39776/Intel-Ethernet-Server-Adapter-X520-DA2

if you update to current could you share results?
