On my setup having T580-CR card which is 2-port 40G, I see Rx PPS improving for 64 byte size from ~25Mpps to ~37Mpps on single port. Similarly, roughly 10 Mpps improvement is seen for dual port also. And for IO size 128 bytes, approx. 3Mpps improvement is seen. Of course, my setup is not a powerful one as used by our QA team. Nevertheless, the improvement is visible in my setup also. Thanks, Rahul
