T1  - A high performance gigabit ethernet messaging method for PVFS
N2  - Parallel File Systems like PVFS2 are a necessary compo nent for high-performance computing. The design of ef ;cient communication layers for these systems is still of great research interest. This paper presents a low- latency messaging method for PVFS2 dedicated for Gigabit Ether net networks and discusses relevant design issues. In con trast to other approaches, we argue that zero-copying can be achieved also for big messages without use of a rendez vous protocol. Further, ef;ciency within the communica tion layer like a small call stack plays an important role.
