Abstract: this paper we describe the performance of the Amoeba distributed operating system [2, 3]. This system was designed to be used, and therefore we have devoted considerable energy to performance. The system uses the popular object-oriented model for distributed computing, in connection with remote procedure calls and lightweight processes. We report on the performance of the Amoeba interprocess communication, and of the file service. The measurements were performed on VME boards containing 16 MHz... (Update)
