Optimize system performance with PCIe
|
2008-05-16 |
| PCIe 2.0 is optimizing system performance in many ways. However, long read response latencies that reduce aggregate I/O performance can occur in host-centric PCIe systems when even a single endpoint reads ahead very aggressively to ensure it is never "starved" for data. PCIe Gen 2 switches feature Read Pacing to prevent this kind of performance degradation |

Pick the right bus for your apps
|
2006-08-01 |
| Engineers should consider key bus attributes such as latency, bandwidth, software support, distance support and availability when determining the appropriate bus for an application. PCIe is particularly well-suited for test and measurement. USB provides widespread availability and easy-to-use plug and play capabilities while LAN is appropriate for distributed applications with modest throughput requirements |
