  1. Network Performance Model Sender Overhead Sender Transmission time (size ÷ band- width) (processor busy) Receiver Overhead Time of Flight Receiver (processor busy) Transport Latency Total Latency Total Latency = per access + Size x per byte per access = Sender+ ReceiverOverhead+ Time of Flight (5 to 200 µsec+5 to 200 µsec+ 0.1 µsec) per byte + Size ÷ 100 MByte/s +

  2. Network History/Limits • TCP/UDP/IP protocols for WAN/LAN in 1980s • Lightweight protocols for LAN in 1990s • Limit is standards and efficient SW protocols 10 Mbit Ethernet in 1978 (shared) 100 Mbit Ethernet in 1995 (shared, switched) 1000 Mbit Ethernet in 1998 (switched) • FDDI; ATM Forum for scalable LAN (still meeting) • Internal I/O bus limits delivered BW • 32-bit, 33 MHz PCI bus = 1 Gbit/sec • future: 64-bit, 66 MHz PCI bus = 4 Gbit/sec

  3. Network Summary • Fast serial lines, switches offer high bandwidth, low latency over reasonable distances • Protocol software development and standards committee bandwidth limit innovation rate • Ethernet forever? • Internal I/O bus interface to network is bottleneck to delivered bandwidth, latency

  4. Memory History/Trends/State of Art • DRAM: main memory of all computers • Commodity chip industry: no company >20% share • Packaged in SIMM or DIMM (e.g.,16 DRAMs/SIMM) • State of the Art: $152, 128 MB DIMM (16 64-Mbit DRAMs),10 ns x 64b (800MB/sec) • Capacity: 4X/3 yrs (60%/yr..) • Moore’s Law • MB/$: + 25%/yr. • Latency: – 7%/year, Bandwidth: + 20%/yr. (so far) source: www.pricewatch.com, 5/21/98

  5. Memory Innovations/Limits • High Bandwidth Interfaces, Packages • RAMBUS DRAM: 800 – 1600 MByte/sec per chip • Latency limited by memory controller, bus, multiple chips, driving pins • More Application Bandwidth => More Cache misses= per access + block size x per byte Memory latency + Size / (DRAM BW x width) = 150 ns + 30 ns • Called Amdahl’s Law: Law of diminishing returns Proc Cache Bus D R A M D R A M D R A M D R A M

  6. Memory Summary • DRAM rapid improvements in capacity, MB/$, bandwidth; slow improvement in latency • Processor-memory interface (cache+memory bus) is bottleneck to delivered bandwidth • Like network, memory “protocol” is major overhead

  7. CPU time = Seconds = Instructions x Clocks x Seconds Program Program Instruction Clock Processor Trends/ History • Microprocessor: main CPU of “all” computers • < 1986, +35%/ yr. performance increase (2X/2.3yr) • >1987 (RISC), +60%/ yr. performance increase (2X/1.5yr) • Cost fixed at $500/chip, power whatever can cool • History of innovations to 2X / 1.5 yr (Works on TPC?) • Multilevel Caches (helps clocks / instruction) • Pipelining (helps seconds / clock, or clock rate) • Out-of-Order Execution (helps clocks / instruction) • Superscalar (helps clocks / instruction)

  8. State of the Art: Alpha 21264 • 15M transistors • 2 64KB caches on chip; 16MB L2 cache off chip • Clock <1.7 nsec, or >600 MHz (Fastest Cray Supercomputer: T90 2.2 nsec) • 90 watts • Superscalar: fetch up to 6 instructions/clock cycle, retires up to 4 instruction/clock cycle • Execution out-of-order

Innovation? x86 IA-64 SPARC Alpha PowerPC MIPS PA-RISC

  12. Processor Summary • SPEC performance doubling / 18 months • Growing CPU-DRAM performance gap & tax • Running out of ideas, competition? Back to 2X / 2.3 yrs? • Processor tricks not as useful for transactions? • Clock rate increase compensated by CPI increase? • When > 100 MIPS on TPC-C? • Cost fixed at ~$500/chip, power whatever can cool • Embedded processors promising • 1/10 cost, 1/100 power, 1/2 integer performance?
