Hi Shirish,
Below are the system specs and some further testing that I did. I'm
still trying to figure out the bottlenecking issues. Let me know if you see
anything that I missed.
Regards,
Ahmed
Server:
2.4 Ghz Intel Xeon with 533Mhz FSB
512 L2 Cache
Using RAID 1 & SCSI drives capable of 160MB/s
There are no IRQ duplicates (i.e. no conflicts)
It has 2, 1Gbps Network cards
Running Win'03 Server (up to date on all service packs/patches)
Client:
Intel P4 3.0Ghz
1GB of Ram
1Gbps Network card
I just copied a 2GB file from the server to the client and vice versa. The
transfer was very fast and used ~300Mbps (Average), both ways were about the
same. I'm using Net meter on both ends to monitor the bandwidth usage, and
until the file transfer the bandwidth monitor was pretty much showing little
activity so I assume 99.9% of the bandwaidth useage was due to the file copy
operation between the server to the client hard drive and then back again.
I checked to make sure that all irritating background processes like Norton,
were shut off and all the microsoft fast indexing services were shut off.
There is virtually no server load besides the programs/transerfs that I am
running, as this server is a dedicated server being used by me.
Next, I just tried doing a checkout of a 1.8GB file and looking at the
bandwidth monitor, it looks like the maximum bandwidth usage was 28Mbps and
average was ~20Mbps. During the transfer, neither the client or server were
really pressed for resources, as the server used a max of 50% of it's
processing power and ~281MBs of memory, the client pc shows similiar load.
Please let me know if this info helps. I am still left wondering... Thanks
again for the help.
Regards,
Ahmed
