....but does not support the full set of DCOM features. The transport approach adds a new loadable transport module that encapsulates all VIA specific details. The new transport transparently supports all DCOM and RPC applications, however the RPC runtime seriously limits potential performance gains [Z98]. In contrast, our system, Millennium Falcon, leverages the existing DCOM runtime layer to support the full set of DCOM features. Optimizations for VIA are implemented in the loadable transport, RPC runtime, and marshaling layers. At the loadable transport layer, we exploit RPC semantics to ....

....numbers are 5.06ms vs. 4.79ms, a 5.3 improvement. 6. Related Work Madukkarumukumana et al. built a custom marshaling layer for DCOM over VIA [Ma98] Their implementation sacrifices DCOM features for speed. Zimmer and Chien built a UDP loadable transport for MSRPC over Illinois Fast Messages [Z98]. They pointed out that the current RPC implementation imposes serious limitations on potential performance gains. Our work on RPC runtime optimization was partly motivated by their observations. Bilas and Felten [B97] modified SunRPC to run over Shrimp VMMC. In their SunRPC compatible ....
