Operating System Notes Tuning parameters: - AFD/Parameters/TransmitWorker=32, adjusts system default thread, default 16. - Control/FileSystem/NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate=1, prevents updating LastAccess time stamp on NTFS directories. - Control/Session Manager/Memory Management/LargeSystemCache=0, limits system cache, default 1. - Control/Session Manager/Memory Management/SystemPages=0xffffffff, sets system pages. - Tcpip/Parameters/DisableLargeSendOffload=0, enable large sends for TCP/IP. - Tcpip/Parameters/MaxFreeTWTcbs=1098000, sets maximum number of TIME_WAIT tcbs to 1,098,000. - Tcpip/Parameters/MaxHashTableSize=0x10000, sets TCB hash table size to 65,536 entries, default 512. - Tcpip/Parameters/MaxSendSegments=0x1000, max TCP segments sent consecutively to a destination, default 64. - Tcpip/Parameters/MaxUserPort=0xfffe, sets maximum open ports to 65534. - Tcpip/Parameters/NumTcbTablePartitions=64, sets number of independent TCB table segments, default 4. - Tcpip/Parameters/TcpTimedWaitDelay=60, sets TIME_WAIT parameter to 60 seconds (non-RFC 1122), default is 240. - Tcpip/Parameters/TcpWindowSize=65535, sets TCP send/receive window size, default 8192. NIC registry settings: - PciReadMax=128, sets maximum number of bytes per PCI read burst, default 0xffffffff. - LargeSend=1, enables large sends. - HybridLen=54, threshold in bytes that the driver decides to DMA versus copy, default 128. - HostTracing=0 (off), disables NIC driver logging events, default 1 (on). Windows 2000 SP2, 3C985-SX driver, NDIS and TCPIP hotfixes available May 2001. HTTP Software Notes - TWC CAD buffers=1024, default not set. - CGI-Gateway buffers=48, default not set. Client Notes Tcpip/Parameters/MaxUserPort = 0xfffe, sets maximum open ports to 65534. Other Notes SWC 3.0 Configuration: 7 NIC IRQs bound to different CPUs, 1 NIC bound across 4 CPUs, CGI bound to 8th CPU. SWC/Parameters/LogDrive=G, puts log file on G: drive. SWC/Parameters/LogFileInitialSize=0xffffffff, sets initial log file size to 4 gigabytes. SWC/Parameters/VirtualRootName=spec99, sets virtual directory name to spec99. SWC/Parameters/VirtualRootPath=F:\wwwroot99, sets physical path where files are located. SWC/Parameters/SmallCachingThreshold=500, max size for small files (bytes), default system-dependent. SWC/Parameters/LargeCachingThreshold=1200000, max size for cached files (bytes), default system-dependent. SWC/Parameters/SmallBufferSize=0x40, memory for caching small files (MB), default system-dependent. SWC/Parameters/LargeBufferSize=0x6590, memory for caching large files (MB), default system-dependent. SWC/Parameters/SwcLockedMemorySize=0x80, size of locked memory for SWC ops (MB), default system-dependent. =============================================================================== Test Run Details Run Conforming Percent | Throughput Response ops/sec/ Kbits/ Num Connections Conform | ops/sec msec loadgen sec 1 8001 100.0% | 22735.9 351.7 2.84 339.2 2 8000 100.0% | 22717.8 352.0 2.84 339.0 => 3 8001 100.0% | 22719.0 352.0 2.84 339.1
