Sorry, I’m really new to OVS, can you give me more specific move I can do next?
I’m eager to solve this ,but really have no idea where to start……☹

I have changed my test method a little to make the issue more clear:

As you can see, my vm has two virtual NIC, tap1 is working under VLAN 
(tag=2002), while tap2 is working under FLAT.
And the bandwidth is :
Test Node => tap1   2.85 Gbits/sec
Test Node => tap2   9.40 Gbits/sec

Both path has an adding and stripping of VLAN tags operation, so where can I 
find the difference from code ??

The problem is almost certainly not the actual modification of tags but in the 
interactions with the rest of the system. In that case, it's not surprising 
that rewriting the tags doesn't change anything.
