Technical Summary

• Transmission-Rate-Controlled TCP
• We removed TCP related difficulties
• Standard TCP
• I/O bus bandwidth is the bottleneck
• 7.21 Gbps at 1500B Ethernet frame size
• TCP offloading engine
• Cheap and simple servers can enjoy 10Gbps network
• gt 30,000 km 10Gbps network (500ms RTT)
• 16 Network and Research Institutes, 37 persons
• Lack of methodology in high-performance network
  debugging
• 3 day debugging (overnight working)
• 1 day stable period (usable for measurements)
• Network may feel exhausted, some trouble must
  happen
