nmbclusters: how do we want to fix this for 8.3 ?

2012-02-22 Thread Jack Vogel
Using igb and/or ixgbe on a reasonably powered server requires 1K mbuf clusters per MSIX vector, that's how many are in a ring. Either driver will configure 8 queues on a system with that many or more cores, so 8K clusters per port... My test engineer has a system with 2 igb ports, and 2 10G ixgbe

It could do some good to think of the scale of the problem and maybe the driver can tune to the hardware. First, is 8k packet buffers a reasonable default on a GigE port? Well... on a GigE port, you could have from 100k pps (packets per second) at 1500 bytes to 500k pps at around 300 bytes to trul
