Here is one set of test results. This is between 2 2-processor systems
with mthca.
winverbs
threads 1 2 4
conn/sec 644 1294 1661
accept 1363 1228 1566
disc 814 715 706
ibal
threads 1 2 4
conn/sec 1454 1854 1823
accept 386 536 568
disc 457 596 772
So, at 4 threads, there's only about a 10% difference, but over a 100%
difference for a single thread. rdma_cmatose, which is single threaded,
reports about 715 connections / second for winverbs.
I'll try to see what the impact is of using work threads in the kernel
driver.
