No FAQ exists. But in the iwarp branch, the userspace/perftest dir has
rdma_lat and rdma_bw which do rdma write latency and bandwidth tests.
Use the --cma flag to force using the rdma cma for connection setup.
Like this. For a test to crank out 10000 rdma writes of size 30000:
server side: rdmabw --cma --size=30000
client side: rdmabw --cma --size=30000 --iters=10000 <server's rdma ip
address>
Ask Chelsio for other perf benchmark programs. They haven't released
these other programs yet, but you could probably get them directly from
Chelsio...
NOTE: Large IO sizes don't work. Keep it under 60000B.
Steve.
