Description

Motivation

ssh-x videomode in the ssh-X teststuite is extremely slow on ppc64le, leading to "noise" that can only be avoided by wait_still_screen calls.

We therefore created a Service Request to see if performance can be imprvoved.

This ticket is to collect all data and progress regarding X forwarding on ppc64le.

History

#1 Updated by rainerkoenig about 1 year ago

Status Update 2022-05-12

Measured now the speed between openqa.suse.de and redcurrant-12.qa.suse.de. 10 rounds with 69MB payload.

Average speed from openqa → redcurrant-12 is 33 MBytes/s.
Average speed from redcurrant-12 → openqa is 2388,8 KBytes/s

That mean in average the transfer from openqa to redcurrent-12 is 144 times faster than the other way round.

tracepath also shows, that there are no different routes between the 2 machines, depending on who is sender and receiver.
