A method and system for optimizing network I/O throughput is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for optimizing an input/output (I/O) throughput for a storage network comprises measuring a service time for a storage device of the storage network in completing an I/O request serviced by a storage driver. The method also comprises determining a status of an I/O performance between the storage driver and the storage device by comparing the service time with an expected service time for the storage device in completing the I/O request, where the expected service time is calculated based on a type of the storage device and a size of the I/O request. The method further comprises adjusting a maximum queue depth associated with the storage device based on the status of the I/O performance.

摘要:
A system and method for flexible device driver resource allocation is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method for allocating device driver resources in a data processing system includes statically allocating hardware resource pools to device drivers on a rigid basis during initialization of the data processing system, and dynamically altering the allocated hardware resource pools to the device drivers based on parameters associated with utilization of the allocated hardware resource pools during run-time.
