Hi,
A couple of week ago, I've posted a pdf with performance evaluation for
inter-node only using local TCP or Sharedmemory. I measured message
delivery time, and message frequency, as a function of message size.
Search for the "Shared memory image plugin" thread.
Obviously, these transports cannot compete with the nodelet architecture...
