Re: Network Performance Comparison between Linux 2.4 and 2.6

I have included the throughput figures for bridging for both 2.4 and 2.6 kernels in the table below. Packet Size(bytes)2.4.31(Mbps) 2.6.16(Mbps) -- 64

Network Performance Comparison between Linux 2.4 and 2.6

Hi , I performed the routing and bridging tests on Linux kernels 2.4.31 and 2.6.16 on a MIPS(4kc) malta Board , with and without iptables rules. I observed that the routing performance is quite better( 15-20% increase) on 2.6 for shorter packet sizes( 64,128 and 256 bytes) and almost equal to tha
