....and the O S multiplexes these virtual machines over hardware. Providing this abstraction entails a high overhead in terms of context switch time and memory footprint, thereby limiting concurrency. A number of studies have shown the scalability limitations of thread based concurrency models [6, 11, 21, 32], even in the context of so called lightweight threads. I O Scalability limitations: The I O interfaces exported by existing OSs are generally designed to provide maximum transparency to applications, often at the cost of scalability and predictability. Most I O interfaces employ blocking ....
