I/O and Networking
• If you are moving from an older Series 900 HP e3000
system using NIO cards, you will get a big boost in I/O
performance from going to PCI.
• Native Fibre Channel provides big improvements
in I/O bandwidth.
• Networking code has been more highly tuned over the
years on platforms like HP-UX than on MPE/iX.
Programs like ftp should perform better.
