Re: BGP offloading (fixing legacy router BGP scalability issues)

2015-05-11 Thread Chaim Rieger
Freddy, did you get your test up ? I too am facing the same BGP scalability constraints as you are, and the only real viable solution seems to be filtering. I'll probably will setup a small test environment to see if this actually works as expected. Best Regards, Freddy

As it turns out, I've been playing around benchmarking things lately using the tried and true UnixBench suite and here are a few numbers that might put this in some perspective: 1) My new Rapsberry pi (4 cores, arm): 406 2) My home i5-like thing (asus 4 cores, 16gb's from last year): 3857 3) AW

Interesting! Knowing a pi costs approximately $35, then you need approximately $350 to get near an i5.. The smallest and cheapest desktop you can get that would have similar power is the Intel NUC with an i5 that goes for approximately $350. Power consumption of a NUC is about 5x that of the raspbe

Did I miss anything? Just a quick comparison. If those numbers are accurate, then it leans towards the NUC rather than the Pi, no? Perf: 1x i5 NUC = 10x Pi $$: 1x i5 NUC = 10x Pi Power: 1x i5 NUC = 5x Pi So...if a single NUC gives you the performance of 10x Pis at the capital cost of

Maybe I messed up the math in my head, my line of thought was one pi is estimated to use 1.2 watts, whereas the nuc is at around 65 watts. 10 pi's = 12 watts. My comparison was 65watts/12watts = 5.4 times more power than 10 pi's put together. This is really a rough estimate because I got the NUC's

Rather then guessing on power consumption, I measured it. I took a Pi (Model B - but I suspect B+ and the new version is relatively similar in power draw with the same peripherials), hooked it up to a lab power supply, and took a current measurement. My pi has a Sandisk SD card and a Sandisk USB
