RTI Connext

  • Exhibits high throughput, approaching the theoretical bandwidth of Gigabit Ethernet, using modest CPUs
  • Provides very low latency, that increases Linearly with data payload size
  • Sustains low latency and throughput even at very high levels of message traffic

RTI Connext Performance Benchmarks

RTI benchmarked Connext with a wide variety of latency and throughput tests using RTI Performance Test (PerfTest). It includes scripts to run the tests on your platforms.

These results show that Connext provides sub-millisecond latency that scales linearly with data payload size and throughput that easily exceeds 90% of line rate over gigabit Ethernet.

This graph shows the one-way latency without load between a Publisher and a Subscriber running in two Linux nodes in a 10Gbps network.

perf-throughput-chart-05-2021

This graph shows the expected throughput behavior when performing a 1-1 communication between two Linux nodes in a 10Gbps network.

perf-compression-chart-05-2021

This graph shows the expected throughput behavior when using data compression in a 1-1 communication scenario between two Linux nodes in a 1Gbps network.
