Windows HPC专著于应用性能
Windows Computer Cluster Server 2003 Windows HPC Server 2008 Windows HPC Server 2008 R2
Windows Server 2003
Scale to 64 nodes MPI over Windows Socket Direct File system: SMB 1 (Server Message Block)
Windows Server 2008
Scale to 256 nodes and beyond MPI over NetworkDirect (RDMA on Windows) offer comparable performance to native API with multi Fabric support: InfiniBand, iWarp, Myrinet
Windows Server 2008 R2
Scale to 1000 nodes and beyond Further improvements in MPI shared memory performance Timer coalescing reduces OS overhead
Scalability on a single node goes up to 64 cores
Scalability on a single node goes up to 256 cores
SMB 2 improves I/O performance SMB 2.1 reduce network chattiness User mode threads (aka Light weight threads)
