Hello Fabien,
Hello :)
1- I have noticed you are not using GENERIC config file, can you
provide us more information on how your KERNCONF differs from
GENERIC ?
I am pretty sure you have removed all the debug OPTIONs from the
kernel, isn't it ?
It's a GENERIC kernel conf with polling an

Hi,
After many years of good services we will stop using FreeBSD 4.x :)
During my performance regression tests under FreeBSD 6.2 i've found
that polling has lower performance than interrupt.
To solve that issue i've rewritten the core of

Haven't tested RELENG_4 performance in a controlled environment and
thus can't answer the question directly. However using fastforward
on 6 and 7 is key to good performance. Without it you're stuck at
some 150-200kpps, perhaps 300kpps. With it you get to 500-800kpps.
To show that pps is mai

Hi,
This is really interesting work! Reading the pdf file, it
seems forwarding performance on 6 and 7 is still much lower than
RELENG_4 ? is that correct ?

Thanks,
Yes it is still slower but as you can see in the graph (programming
cost) just adding a mutex
