The performance parameters were set to defaults except for the upload and restore threads which were set to 64. The thread settings were determined to provide the best peak performance for the workloads conducted in this study.
Other advanced options such as the number of upload and restores threads and multipart threads are available. These options were modified one at a time to validate the effect they have on overall performance for uploads and downloads. For upload and restore threads testing, the datasets used were 30,000 files of 10KB data size, and for the multipart threads a single 1GB file size. The effects of these performance parameters are described in the Tuning options section.
