摘要
It is shown that the ParaStation3 communication system can considerably improve the performance of parallel disk I/O on cluster computers with Myrinet or Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Benchmarks of the open source parallel file system PVFS on the 128-node ALiCE cluster at Wuppertal University outperform existing results by more than a factor of 2. The large-scale computation of I/O-intensive eigenmode problems from computational field theory demonstrates the long-time stability of PVFS/Parastation.
