Actually, the result I mentioned is from Thomas' review. Here's the whole snippet. I'm wondering how to test and measure the unicast netlink I/O performance improvement.

I see you provided "before" results, but I don't see any "after" ones. What were the "after" results? _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
