B.2 Network performance
This section provides approximate expected network performance figures for each interconnect type. Figures
for Gigabit Ethernet, Myrinet 2XP, and Voltaire InfiniBand interconnects are based on tests carried out by
HP. The figure for the Quadrics (QsNet
II
) interconnect is the expected throughput and is not a measured
value.
Table B-4 shows the approximate expected network performance figures.
