Bisection bandwidth is a good metric, as it captures where the bottlenecks in a system can lie - the smaller your bisection bandwidth, the less scalable your system can be

Noting that Bisection should be done in such a way that the bandwidth between two partitions is minimum. Only in this way, the bisection bandwidth can give the true bandwidth available in the entire system.

How to cut the network in half if it is not symmetric?

@firebb I think the term cut in half here does not mean exactly in the middle. We only need to find a way that cuts the network to two partitions and the bandwidth between them is the minimum.
