Hi there,
I am starting a new thread to try and solve a problem I am having will slow network throughput to the XEN host (not to a domU).
I have confirmed my problem occurs with PVOPS 'xen/master' kernel as well using
http://pasik.reaktio.net/xen/pv_ops-dom0-debug/config-2.6.31.6-pvops-dom0-xen-master-x86_64 as the .config.
It also occurs with a forward ported xenified kernel (2.6.31.12) using the attached
config-11-xen (.config).
However when using the xen kernel found in debain lenny (2.6.26-2) for the amd64 architecture I get similiar transfer rates to my Xen host as I do on a baremetel kernel.
Bastian Blank perhaps you could point me in the right direction in regards to a debian specific customization or patch I should be aware of?
Maxium transfer rate (to/from
hard disk) using the PVOPS 'xen/master' kernel and forward ported xenified kernel (2.6.31.12) is bottlenecking at ~1MB/s. On the
debain lenny xen kernel I am getting ~4.5MB/s.I was
hoping one could suggest options in the .config that might be modified
in order to improve network throughput of a XEN kernel and therefor increase the data transfer rates over the netowork to and from the Xen host.
Thanks alot for any help! As always I will be willing to accept any suggestions :)
