Hi,

There is couple of features not available for linuxbridge agent and available 
only for ovs. For example: firewall based on openflows or DVR. I think that 
things related to DPDK are also available for open vswitch.

I have feeling that there is also more developers who cares about open vswitch 
agent than for linuxbridge but I might be wrong with that of course :)

So personally today I would choose open vswitch probably :)
