Abstract: this paper is a characterization of the delays actually observed in a suite of applications. We show that the majority of notification delays result from a small number of large delays. These delays can dominate any gains achieved through use of new network technologies. The impact of these delays can be considerable. Our applications averaged more than 31% slower without interrupts than with them. This result argues that the problem is serious, and needs to be addressed either by including... (Update)

.... responsiveness when the network application programmers interfaces do not support interrupts has been investigated by Perkovic et al. [9]. They describe an approach to support low overhead network polling using event ags similar to ours, but they mainly consider inserting this...
