Web stuff

OS behavior under very heavy network load

• Zero-copy I/O: fbufs, I/O lite (Pai/Drushchel@rice), sendfile(2) (many commercial UNIX)

• Decouple process mgmt & resource mgmt (really not specific to web…)

  • Eg, fair-share-schedule server and CGI as a unit
  • Performance isolation (Verghese@WRL), resource container (Banga/Druschel@rice), Rialto (Jones@msr), etc
