Glen Turner will be giving a talk on "Tuning hosts for network performance":
This meeting will show how to tune your host and its network for best performance. Common fault scenarios and the tools used to investigate those scenarios are explored.
Specific practices include: bandwidth-delay product and TCP buffer tuning; Linux buffer autotuning; congestion, link loss and TCP performance; common causes of link losses; choice of TCP algorithm, performance and fairness; applications design. Tools include: what do ping and traceroute actually measure; using iperf and ttcp, using Web100 kernel patches, NDT.
Glen is a network engineer with Australia's Academic & Research Network (AARNet). He has had long interest and experience tuning the AARNet network for high performance.
