NAMEfi_tcp - The msg sockets Fabric Provider OVERVIEWThe tcp provider can be used on any system that supports TCP sockets.

SUPPORTED FEATURESThe following features are supported
RUNTIME PARAMETERSThe tcp provider check for the following enviroment variables -
LIMITATIONSThe tcp provider is implemented over TCP sockets to emulate libfabric API. Hence the performance may be lower than what an application might see implementing to sockets directly, depending on the types of data transfers the application is trying to achieve.
