Hello Ben,

some feedback regarding the latency issue. We upgraded the kernel module and userspace to version 2.3 We now have around 30 - 50 flows, this is a huge improvement! The TCP_CRR numbers are looking much better now.
Thanks for the work you put in this!

Do you have any numbers to share comparing the Linux bridge and openvswitch regarding TCP_RR and TCP_CRR performance?

Thank you in advance!

Cheers
Chris

Hi

It looks like it's the one which comes with OpenStack:

# modinfo openvswitch

Linux 2.6.32 doesn't come with an openvswitch kernel module, so what version of the kernel module do you have? Some performance improvements will only
come with a sufficiently new kernel module.
