Server Modules Up: High-Performance Caching With The Previous:
Performance
For many applications, a single hit-server might support up to 1000 clients. Future 66 MHz-PCI devices and 100 MHz memory buses might perhaps enable twice as many clients. However, for achieving our original goal of more than 10,000 clients, we must scale hit-servers. Miss-servers and hit-servers may also be scaled to reduce the miss latency or increase the effective cache size.
