Abstract

Cray Research has been supplying TCP/IP networking code with its UNICOS operating system since February 1986. In the last three years, this code has been improved and optimized, yielding up to two orders of magnitude improvement in performance. This paper addresses some of the issues that were addressed to achieve these changes, and some of the other changes that have been made to fit the TCP/IP code into a Cray environment.
