Software
The load driver for these tests was an internally-developed Java application framework called
the Faban driver.
Conguration and Tuning
The following tuning settings are common to all the tests in this study. Individual studies may
also have additional conguration and tuning information.
/etc/system tuning:
set rlim_fd_max=500000
set rlim_fd_cur=500000
set sq_max_size=0
set consistent_coloring=2
set autoup=60
set ip:ip_squeue_bind=0
set ip:ip_soft_rings_cnt=0
set ip:ip_squeue_fanout=1
set ip:ip_squeue_enter=3
set ip:ip_squeue_worker_wait=0
set segmap_percent=6
set bufhwm=32768
set maxphys=1048576
set maxpgio=128
set ufs:smallfile=6000000
*For ipge driver
set ipge:ipge_tx_ring_size=2048
set ipge:ipge_tx_syncq=1
set ipge:ipge_srv_fifo_depth=16000
set ipge:ipge_reclaim_pending=32
set ipge:ipge_bcopy_thresh=512
set ipge:ipge_dvma_thresh=1
set pcie:pcie_aer_ce_mask=0x1
*For e1000g driver
set pcie:pcie_aer_ce_mask = 0x1
TCP/IP tuning:
ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_conn_req_max_q 102400
ndd -set /dev/tcp tcp_conn_req_max_q0 102400
