    Description

      On machines with slow single thread performance like KNL the bottleneck of I/O performance moved into code which just copy memory from one buffer to other (from user space to kernel or vice versa). In current Lustre implementation all I/O performs in single thread and this is become an issue for KNL. Significantly improve performance can be with solution which do parallel memory transfer of large buffers.
