  2. TCP tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TCP_tuning

    Maximum achievable throughput for a single TCP connection is determined by different factors. One trivial limitation is the maximum bandwidth of the slowest link in the path. But there are also other, less obvious limits for TCP throughput. Bit errors can create a limitation for the connection as well as RTT.

  3. Burst mode (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burst_mode_(computing)

    Total throughput increase factor using 4-beat burst mode = single mode latency/(total burst mode latency) = 272/80 = 3.4. Total latency of one 8-beat burst mode = (t initial + t sequential) = 8 + 8x(0.5) = 12 ns For 32 write transactions, required 8-beat transfers = 32/8 = 4 Hence, total latency of 32 write transfers = 12 x 4 = 48 ns

  4. Simultaneous multithreading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simultaneous_multithreading

    This switches the threading mode between one thread, two threads or four threads depending on the number of process threads being scheduled at the time. This optimizes the use of the core for minimum response time or maximum throughput. IBM POWER8 has 8 intelligent simultaneous threads per core (SMT8).

  5. Bandwidth throttling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_throttling

    Limiting the speed of data sent by a data originator (a client computer or a server computer) is much more efficient than limiting the speed in an intermediate network device between client and server because while in the first case usually no network packets are lost, in the second case network packets can be lost / discarded whenever ingoing data speed overcomes the bandwidth limit or the ...

  6. Multithreading (computer architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multithreading_(computer...

    Even though it is very difficult to further speed up a single thread or single program, most computer systems are actually multitasking among multiple threads or programs. Thus, techniques that improve the throughput of all tasks result in overall performance gains. Two major techniques for throughput computing are multithreading and ...

  7. Computer performance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_performance

    Outside of specific contexts, computer performance is estimated in terms of accuracy, efficiency and speed of executing computer program instructions. When it comes to high computer performance, one or more of the following factors might be involved: Short response time for a given piece of work. High throughput (rate of processing work tasks).

  9. Direct memory access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_memory_access

    In the cycle stealing mode, the DMA controller obtains access to the system bus the same way as in burst mode, using BR (Bus Request) and BG signals, which are the two signals controlling the interface between the CPU and the DMA controller. However, in cycle stealing mode, after one unit of data transfer, the control of the system bus is ...
