Thanks -- I searched for a pair of boxes in my infra with those specs, found them: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1620 v3 @ 3.50GHz 82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Network Connection and Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-1620 v4 @ 3.50GHz 82599ES 10-Gigabit SFI/SFP+ Network Connection and tested. Roughly the same performance, if we use only one connection. iperf3 -c <destip> The boxes were able to reach 10gbit, if we run 3 threads in parallel: iperf3 -c -P 3 <destip> So I have some area where I can investigate further. -- p...@freebsd.org +49 171 3101372 Now what ? _______________________________________________ freebsd-net@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-net To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-net-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
