Experiments – Performance
Figure 6.13: The complex scheme is executed.
After loading the complex scheme, we executed it, and it took about 2 seconds to
execute. The result was 5 files that were saved on the server’s machine, and 4 images
that were rendered from the client.
The number of modules in this scheme does not mean anything. We only wanted to
create a scheme with many modules, to see how the client and the server would
handle it, and how the MVE_Remote would handle it. We were surprised to see that
the MVE_Remote environment crashed in some cases when we tried to execute this
scheme. However, the client and the server did not have any problem with it.
The numbers given in the figures above have been measured using the Remote
Machine, with a 56k modem. There was no network traffic that would reduce the
client’s performance, and the client’s and the server’s machines did not have any
noticeable workload. In the Table 6.2 we can see how these times are modified as the
state of the machines and the network changes.
