Abstract
As an experiment in protocol optimization, the authors undertook to improve the performance of a stateless protocol - the User Datagram Protocol (UDP) in the 4.3 BSD Unix* kernel. This paper describes the successful optimization that were done, along with measurements that show a UDP performance improvement of between 2%35% on CISC and RISC systems, and overall kernel improvement of between 12 and 18~0.Keywords
