[comp.os.vms] Communication costs - cpu time and elapsed time.

gupta@cullsj.UUCP (Yogesh Gupta) (06/18/88)

Hi VMS Gurus:
    I have some questions regarding the performance of inter-process
    communications under VMS:

    1.  Does anyone have any numbers as to the cost (CPUtime and elapsed time)
        of sending a message from one process to another on the SAME
        machine?

    2.  Does anyone have a set of numbers for different size messages?
        32bytes, 64bytes, 128bytes, 256bytes, 512bytes, 1K, 2K, ... 32K?

    3.  Does anyone have a similar set of numbers for communications over
        DECnet on a local-area-net (10Mbit/sec)?

    4.  Does anyone have a similar set of numbers for communications over
        DECnet on a wide-area-net (9600 baud...)?

    Any and all replies will be appreciated.  Thanks.
