How Do Hardware And Software Initiators Affect The Performance Of Applications?

Answer»

If an application accesses a large number of small files frequently (e.g. a heavily utilized OLTP database), this may RESULT in the iSCSI initiator USING up to 25% of CPU capacity. In such cases a, hardware iSCSI initiator (or iSCSI HBA) WOULD possibly become necessary, although a TNIC might still SUFFICE.
