Hi,
in my case guest to
internet speed is ok. wget between guests shows 35K/s to the max..and
the throughput in this case is 35.1K/s eta 4h 3m. I case of guest to host its around 147K/s
As you said
I think your problem can be related to this issue. If you want to be
sure, count the average number of packet per seconds. It should be
about 250 packets/s (not more).
Packets per sec from guest to guest is 2packects per sec..
From guest to host is 1packet per sec
From Host to guest is 2packets per sec
Regards,
Fasiha Ashraf

I experienced the same problem with netperf and with hping also. In general every tool that sends packet at fixed rates seems to suffer this
problem. If you use the flood option ( sends packets as fast as possible - for example 'ping -f' or 'hping3 -f') instead of a fixed rate the rate become much higher. What I discovered is this issue should be related to Xen's signal handling/delivery.
Netperf use setitimer() to send packets at fixed rate. In my experience on dom0/U, with no load, Xen cannot go over 250 signals per second. Because netperf use signal wakeup the function that send packets I think your problem can be related to this issue. If you want to be sure, count the average number of packet per seconds. It should be about 250 packets/s (not more).

Hi there,
I am getting very low throughput (around 0.29Mbps) while running netperf benchmark for guest to guest communication on a single physical host. To analyse where the time is spent in hypervisor I wanna use profiling. Please help me choosing good profiler according to my requirments. Should it be better in my case, Xentrace, gprof, xenoprof or Oprofile. Is it possible to use some vtune version on FC11?
