In this paper we present several simple performance models for computationally intense remote procedure calls.Previous analyses of remote procedure call have dwelt largely on how to reduce call overhead for computationally trivial remote procedure call.Experimental determination the values of the parameters of the models are shown for a variety of network sizes.Conclusions are drawn for the current and future feasibility of performing computationally intense remote procedure call on a wide area network.
