I already approached a few people … even if you have already given feedback feel free to add anything else. 1. How do you use VSPERF or plan to use VSPERF? Do not currently use VSPERF. Plan to use it to verify upcoming reference architectures for various platforms. 2. Why do you think VSPERF is an important project in OPNFV, what are the main benefits of the project that you foresee? Being able to independently quantify the overhead of switching, including being able to demonstrate the differences in acceleration technologies (i.e. DPDK, SR-IOV) is a key benefit for me in my plans for OpenStack architecture validation. 3. What are major gaps or features that you would like to see in VSPERF that are not there today? 4. Anything else? At the risk of perhaps repeating what was talked about at the summit: I think starting to combing the different traffic and load testing projects to show stress points in a fully deployed system is something that is greatly needed. My simple example is running VSPERF and StorPerf at the same time. Do the tenant and storage networks overlap, or is the system architected in a way to isolate them? Does CPU load on a hypervisor (noisy neighbour) affect vswitch or storage performance, etc?
