Hi,
I measured performance again with maxbufsize = 268435456 and multiple
cpu configurations, here's an result.
It seems the performance on 10GbE is bit unstable, not scaling
linearly by adding cpus/queues.
Maybe it depends some sort of system parameter, but I don't figure out
the answer.
Multithreaded BPF performance is increasing than single thread BPF in
all case, anyway.
