This paper presents a case study of the 10-Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) adapter from Intel R. Specifically, with appropriate optimizations to the configurations of the 10GbE adapter and TCP, the paper demonstrates that the 10GbE adapter can perform well in local-area, storage-area, system-area, and wide-area networks. For local-area, storage-area, and system-area networks in support of networks of workstations, network-attached storage, and clusters, respectively, one can achieve over 7-Gb/s end-to-end throughput and 12- s end-to-end latency between applications running on Linux-based PCs.
