Thanks for a reply, Bruce. One question though. According to DDIO documentation it only affects the CPUs "local" relatively to the NIC. DCA, on the other hand may be configured to work with any CPU. Modern platforms usually have a few NUMA nodes and requirement of binding network handling threads only to CPUs "local" to the NIC is very limiting.
Could u, pls., comment on this? thanks in advance, vlad > > /Bruce
