i did some test and Niagara (T1000 / T5240) performs badly (response time
and rate) compared to Intel/AMD

some numbers at 75% cpu
T1000 6 cores / 24threads~10ms 600 queries/second
2-core AMD 1210 1.8ghz:~0.6ms   7000 queries/second
8-core Intel E5410 2.33ghz: ~0.6ms  7 queries/second

Hi

i read that 'old' bind version where better when threading was disabled. Load 
balancing 
between 2 processe was better.  Is this always the case ?

How does BIND 9 scale with multithreading?

2010-09-29 Thread Eivind Olsen
Does anyone know if there are any benchmarks out in the public, which
could give some insight into how well BIND 9 scales with multithreading?
I've tried looking on this list, and googling, but haven't found anything
yet.

To be a bit more specific - I'm not sure what a good option for server
hardware would be for a recursive DNS server. On one hand, the Sun (ok,
Oracle) Niagara/Coolthreads architecture seems to work nicely enough, but
maybe I'd be better off with some generic Intel/AMD based solution with
fewer threads/cores but higher GHz per thread?
