i am trying to gauge the performance of ovs using 64K flows. i am pumping the packets of 1K size on 8 core machine with a 10 gig interface with line rate 1.2Mpps, ovs is at receiving side on 8 core machine having 10 gig interface. I observed that with 64K flows the ovs is switching only 30% of line rate. when i disabled periodic deletion of flows it was able to switch the line rate
can any one tell me, whether this is the performance range of ovs, can this be bettered by any configuration of the ovs. if so please suggest me some configuration to improve performance of ovs.
