In the second test (see below), we saw a performance gap between PUT and GET. So I put in additonal two GridFTP servers (the 'osgserv' class machine below) and did a few tests again. All other testing environment remained the same.
srmPrepareToGet: 1) 5000 PtG, no pause. all completed. Total 710 seconds (~ 7 PtG/sec). TCP connections < 10 all the time.
4) 5000 PtG, no pause. all completed. Total 709 seconds (~ 7 PtG/sec). TCP connections < 10 all the time.
CPU usage < 100% on BeStMan-xrootd host.
srmPrepareToPut: 2) 5000 PtP, sleep 5 seconds /100 PtP, all completed.
3) 5000 PtP, no pause, all completed. Total 885 seconds (~ 5.6PtP/sec).
TCP connection: < 20 for the first 1000 PtP, < 350 during 1000-3000 PtP, < 20 during 3000-5000 PtP (Are there competing activities?)
CPU usage 100 - 200%
Note: memory usage (RES) raised from 150MB to 327MB during 1), then raised to 342MB during 2), and stay at 343MB during 3) and 4).
I _think_ the reason of previous PtP and PtG performance gap was that Xrootd storage imposes a 5 seconds delay when creating new files. So the GridFTP servers may be overrun by the incoming PtP requests, which in turn caused large number of glite-url-copy processes acculumated at the submission host (lxplus202.cern.ch, dual dual-core Intel Xeon 5150 2.66Ghz, 8GB). Eventually, BeStMan-xrootd couldn't communicate with the submission host.
