CPU Clusters

The CPU Clusters setting in Transfer Manager and NeoVid applications allows to define the number of logical groups for merging CPU cores. This allows load balancing by distributing services between processor cores.

Using CPU Clusters is necessary in systems containing over 64 cores (.considering Hyper-Threading).

Example: Distributing Cores into Clusters

Possible number of groups: 1, 2 or 4.

An example of division into groups for a system with an 8 core processor:

CPU ClustersGroups
18 cores
24 cores + 4 cores
42 cores + 2 cores + 2 cores + 2 cores

List of Supported Modules

CPU Cluster is supported by the following modules:

The target group of cores (CPU Cluster) may be selected for every module: 1, 2, 3 or 4 (depending on CPU Clusters settings).
