Ethernet Performance of ethernet networks varies widely. Factors include the switch and NIC manufacturer, firmware settings and system/software settings. Physical layer even plays a role: 10 GigE over RJ45 (10GBase-T) has a higher latency than SFP+ Direct-Attach…
Transistor density doubles every ~2 years. Ideally, this means we can provide you computers that contain twice as much memory and perform twice as fast. In practice, it’s much more nuanced. Benchmark Your Application The best performance…
