It would appear that gigabit LAN is not! In fact it often runs at the same speed as 100Mbps LAN. Let's look at why exactly.
After configuring your network you can use the ifconfig command to see what speeds the LAN is connected. Even though 1000Mbps is reported by the card, the reality is that the overall throughtput may well be ~100Mpbs. You can try copying a large file using scp to demonstrate this.
As it turns out, in order to use a gigabit LAN you need to use CAT6 cables. CAT5 and CAT5E are not good enough. End result, the ethernet cards throttle back the speed to reduce dropped packets and errors.
You can find a good article here titled Squeeze Your Gigabit NIC for Top Performance. After tuning up the TCP parameters i found that it made no dfifference. The principal reasons behind low gigabit ethernet performance can be summed up as follows.
- Need to use CAT6 cables
- Slow Disk speed
- Limitations of the PCI bus which the gigabit ethernet cards use
You can get an idea about the disk speed using the hdparm command:
Display the disk partitions and choose the main linux partition which has the / filesystem.
# fdisk -l
Then get disk cache and disk read statistics:
# hdparm -Tt /dev/sda0
On my desktop system the sata disk perfomance is a limiting factor. These were the results:
/dev/sda1:
Timing cached reads: 9984 MB in 2.00 seconds = 4996.41 MB/sec
Timing buffered disk reads: 84 MB in 3.13 seconds = 58.49 MB/sec
Well, that equates to a raw disk read speed of 58.49 * 8 = 467Mbps which is half the speed of a gigabit LAN.
So.. NAS storage with lots of memory looks to be the way to go... If you use the right cables!
So, to create and configure Recital ODBC datasources, you need to use the Window 32 bit ODBC Data Source Administrator or Recital's own Recital Universal ODBC Manager (32-bit).
The Window 32 bit ODBC Data Source Administrator is %windir%\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe.
The Recital Universal ODBC Manager (32-bit) can be accessed from the Control Panel (icon view).
We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of Recital 10.0.1.
Included in this version are:
- Improved SQL query optimizer
- *New* apache plugin for building Recital web apps on x86_64 (mod_recital64.so)
- Performance improvements in connections to Recital Server and Recital Web.
- Recital ODBC driver performance improvements and bug fixes
- Miscellaneous bug fixes
Existing Recital 10 users can download the patch file and apply it to an existing installation.
Enjoy!
