Parallel I/O
Many parallel applications require high bandwidth I/O. Our benchmarks evaluate the performance of parallel I/O systems under various configurations and loads. The Intel Paragon system includes a parallel file system and high-performance I/O libraries.
Aggregate read throughput of Paragon Parallel Files System (PFS)
with varying number of compute nodes and I/O nodes.
