Jan,
I have answered below but am forwarding this to Karl who performed the testing to get the exact answers.

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for these interesting measurements. I am not quite sure I fully understand the different configurations and traffic cases you have been testing:

  * Do you vary the number of vhost-user queues to the guest and/or
    the number of RX queues for the phy port?

These are vhost user queues. Because OVS and/or VPP is running in the host.

  * Did you add cores at the same time you added queues?

Yes

  * When you say flows, do you mean L3/L4 packet flows (5-tuples) or
    forwarding rules/flow rules?

These are L2 matches.

  * When you e.g. say N flows (srcip, dstip) do you mean matching on
    these fields, modifying these fields or both

Would it be possible to provide the exact VPP and OVS configurations that were used (ports, queues, cores, ports, forwarding rules/flows)?
Thanks, Jan
Here are test results on VPP 17.01 compared with OVS/DPDK 2.6/1611
performed by Karl Rister of Red Hat.
This is PVP testing with 1, 2 and 3 queues. It is an interesting
comparison with the CSIT results. Of particular interest is the drop off
on the 3 queue results.
