Problems found in 1st generation Data Reservoir • Low TCP bandwidth due to packet losses • TCP congestion window size control • Very slow recovery from fast recovery phase (>20min) • Unbalance among parallel iSCSI streams • Packet scheduling by switches and routers • User and other network users have interests only to total behavior of parallel TCP streams
Fast Ethernet vs. GbE • Iperf in 30 seconds • Min/Avg: Fast Ethernet > GbE FE GbE
Packet Transmission Rate • Bursty behavior • Transmission in 20ms against RTT 200ms • Idle in rest 180ms Packet loss occurred
Packet Spacing • Ideal Story • Transmitting packet every RTT/cwnd • 24μs interval for 500Mbps (MTU 1500B) • High load for software only • Low overhead because of limited use at slow start phase RTT RTT/cwnd
Example Case of 8 IPG • Success on Fast Retransmit • Smooth Transition to Congestion Avoidance • CA takes 28 minutes to recover to 550Mbps
Best Case of 1023B IPG • Like Fast Ethernet case • Proper transmission rate • Spurious Retransmit due to Reordering
Unbalance within parallel TCP streams • Unbalance among parallel iSCSI streams • Packet scheduling by switches and routers • Meaningless unfairness among parallel streams • User and other network users have interests only to total behavior of parallel TCP streams • Our approach • Constant Σcwnd i for fair TCP network usage to other users • Balance each cwnd i communicating between parallel TCP streams BW BW time time

Summary • Single Stream TCP • We removed TCP related difficulties • Now I/O bus bandwidth is the bottleneck • Cheap and simple servers can enjoy 10Gbps network • Lack of methodology in high-performance network debugging • 3 day debugging (overnight working) • 1 day stable period (usable for measurements) • Network may feel fatigue, some trouble must happen • We need something effective. • Detailed issues • Flow control (and QoS) • Buffer size and policy • Optical level setting
