The Actual Measurement Comparison 10G Network Card Between Qlogic's and Intel's (For Reference)

Date:2021-05-05View:1189Tags:Qlogic's card,Intel's card,Comparison 10G Network Card

In our daily office, we usually encounter situations where we need to transfer some larger files to another office device. At this time, if you use the mailbox to send, it will exceed the file size limit, which requires us to establish a shared file in the local area network so that everyone can copy the data through the storage device. Today we will continue to test the rate of file transfer for the three 10 Gigabit fiber optic network cards as a local area network. The following is the actual test comparison.


Three network card models for test,

LRES1004PF-2SFP+(Based on Qlogic Chip)、LREC9802BF-2SFP+(Based on Intel 82599 Chip)、LREC9812BF-2SFP+(Based on Intel X710 Chip).

Link 1, Server A To Server A

Link 2, Server A – Switch -- Server A


Auxiliary Servers,

1. 10G Switch

2. 2 * Servers A1,

  CPU, Dual intel xeon E5-2680 v4

  MB, Supermicro X10DRL-i

  DDR, 3*DDR4 8G 2133hz

  SSD, NVME 120G

  OS, Windows Server 2019 R2

3. 2 * Servers B2,

 CPU, intel E3-1230 v5

 MB, intel S1200SP

 DDR, DDR4 2133hz  8G

 SSD:NVME 120G

 OS, Windows Server 2019 R2



With LRES1004PF-2SFP+(Qlogic Chip Based)

Link 1,Server A --- Server A (2* Server A with LRES1004PF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

 

Link 2,Server A -- Switch -- Server A (2* Server A with LRES1004PF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

 

Link 3,Server B -- Server B(2* Server B with LRES1004PF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

 

Link 4,Server B -- Switch -- Server B (2* Server B with LRES1004PF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:




Test 2

With LREC9802BF-2SFP+(Intel 82599 Based)

 

Link 1,Server A---Server A(2* Server A with LREC9802BF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

 

Link 2,Server A -- Switch -- Server A (2* Server A with LREC9802BF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

 

Link 3,Server B -- Server B(2* Server B with LREC9802BF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

Link 4,Server B -- Switch -- Server B (2* Server B with LREC9802BF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

 

Test 3

With LREC9812BF-2SFP+(Intel X710 Based)

Link 1,Server A---Server A(2* Server A with LREC9812BF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

 

Link 2,Server A -- Switch -- Server A(2* Server A with LREC9812BF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

 

Link 3,Server B -- Server B(2* Server B with LREC9812BF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

 

 

 

Link 4,Server B -- Switch -- Server B (2* Server B with LREC9812BF-2SFP+)

Test, Make a copy of the 18GB files

The result:

        

The results,

1. The theoretical transmission rate of 10 gigabit network card is 1250M/S. The copy file rate of the four 10 gigabit fiber network cards tested now is close to 1G, with stable performance and excellent performance among similar products.

2, under the same test conditions, in the LAN file copy each master network card rate comparison can be obtained: LRES1004PF-2SFP+/LRES1005PF-4SFP+ (based on QLogic chip) > LREC9802BF-2SFP+ (based on Intel 82599 chip)≥LREC9812BF-2SFP+ (based on Intel X710 chip). QLogic master control scheme wins because of the powerful RDMA function. For details, please see the article "Technical Analysis of the Application of RDMA Network Card in the Real Environment".

3, in the same hard disk, the same network card, server A than server B performance is much better.

4, copy file speed is not only related to the network card, but also the platform hardware configuration (such as: CPU, memory), hard disk read and write speed, network environment node (such as: switch) and file form are related. During the copying process, if a bottleneck occurs at any node in the network environment, the copying speed will copy the files at the lowest node bottleneck speed.
