Hi Oliver, Just to clarify about mempool - I suppose you are talking about ability to place internal ring and mempool metadata inside externally allocated memory? It is already possible to keep mempool elements inside externally allocated memory (rte_mempool_xmem_create()). Konstantin

No, that's not something I'm working on today. On this topic, I have some work in progress in the rte_mempool code.
