Problem IC78528 | Status: Geschlossen |
HADR IMPLEMENTATION ON HP COULD SEE HIGH CPU UTILIZATION ON THE STANDBY DUE TO A HP SPECIFIC IMPLEMENTATION OF RECV() BUFFER. | |

Problembeschreibung: | |
recv() is used to retrieve data from the network (in this case, from the HADR Primary). A typical recv() call looks like: recv(Socket, pcBuffer, iLength, iFlag). The retrieved data is placed in a buffer called pcBuffer. The amount of data we want to retrieve (or can retrieve) is iLength. A recv() call typically returns only a few KB each time. So iLength could be multiple GB and yet we may get only a few KB. Currently, the HADR Standby requests as much data as there is space for in the HADR receive buffer (which can configured over a GB). This presents a problem on the HP operating system. At the start of every recv() call, HP validates pcBuffer (up through iLength) to ensure that the memory location is legal. This requires a lot of extra work (scanning a GB of data compared with copying a KB of data). This validation only occurs (that we know of) on HP, so hasn't been a problem with other platforms like Linux and AIX. | |
