Hello,
I've done some timing measurements on block transfers of data from the
vme space to
local memory space. My effective transfer rate is about 2mbytes/sec. In
theory, the vme
backplane can handle about 20mbytes/sec. I've checked this for various
block sizes and
the transfer rate scales roughly proportionally with size.
word size: 32bit (transfers are 32bits at a time)
block size: 256bytes: 150uS
block size: 1040bytes: 530uS
block size: 3032byes: ~1.2mS
addr space: 32bit
rtems: 4.9.3
Help appreciated.
Robert W.
