I've tested with a single flow and it shows a 9% throughput increase for Phy-2-Phy on my system - and that doesn't account for the other improvements for multiple megaflows. Patches look good to me. I've one minor comment - will send inline. Thanks. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
