Hi,
I am trying to find the maximum IO core performance with DPDK-2.2 code
using l2fwd application. I got the following number in comparison with
DPDK-1.7 code.
One Port Two ports
DPDK 2.2 14.86Mpps per port 11.8Mpps per port
DPDK 1.7 11.8Mpps per port 11.8Mpps per port
Traffic rate from Router tester: 64bytes packet with 100% line rate
(14.86Mpps per port)
CPU Speed : 3.3GHz
NIC : 82599ES 10-Gigabit
IO Virtualization: SR-IOV
Command used: ./l2fwd -c 3 -w 0000:02:00.1 -w 0000:02:00.0 -- -p 3 -T 1
Note:
- Both the ports are in same NUMA node. I got the same results with full
CPU core as well as hyper-theraded core.
- PCIe speed is same for both the ports. Attached the lspci and other
relevant output.
- In multiple port case, each core was receiving only 11.8Mpps. This means
that RX is the bottleneck.
Questions:
1) For two ports case, I am getting only 11.8Mpps per port compared to
single port case, for which I got line rate. What could be the reason for
this performance degradation? I was looking at the DPDK mail archive and
found the following article similar to this and couldn?t conclude anything.
http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2013-May/000115.html
2) Did anybody try this kind of performance test for i40E NIC?
Thanks,
Swamy
