The impact of multi-core processor on web server performance

The single processor systems are history and the multi-core and many-core systems world is here. Systems performance scales with number of cores only if systems software and applications are designed to fully exploit the parallelism built in multi-core platforms. In this paper we have tried to answer on question is the web server good platform to exploit advantage of the increased raw compute power that comes with the availability of the added cores. We have used a wellknown queuing theory result to compute the average response time of a request at a web server and compared simple performance model with performance scaling results from tests performed on today’s real desktop systems.
