Channel: netdevconf
Date: 10/05/2017

In this talk given at Netdev 2.1 in Montreal on April 6, 2017, Willem de Bruijn introduces a new MSG_ZEROCOPY extension to the socket API. Processes converted to the interface see a cycle reduction ranging from 90% of process cycles (62% systemwide) for a netperf micro-benchmark to 5-8% for lightly modified production machine learning and CDN workloads.
