We are specifically interested in single-system scalability, performance, and reliability of network server infrastructure products running on Linux, such as LDAP directory servers, IMAP electronic mail servers, and web servers, among others. We're continuing to work with vendors such as Sun and IBM on their Linux scalability issues. We presented two papers at the Atlanta Linux Symposium. We're shifting our focus to concentrate on NFS performance and scalability. We're continuing to reach out to potential sponsors.
Work continues on long-term projects.
Milestones Marius Eriksen joins us on the Linux Scalability Project. Stephen Molloy wraps up his scheduler work with a paper that will become a CITI tech report. Snoopy hooks into the C library to monitor application behavior. For more information about snoopy, see it's project listing on sourceforge. Niels and Chuck presented two papers at the Atlanta Linux Symposium in mid-October.
