Hi Xiang,

My best guess is that the rx-miss field comes from DPDK, quote from their 
datasheet:

 Packets are missed when the receive FIFO has insufficient space to
 store the incoming packet. This might be caused due to insufficient
 buffers allocated, or because there is insufficient bandwidth on the
 IO bus.

And most likely it’s not related to VPP itself.

Thanks,
Andrew

    Hi, guys
    Last week I did some performance test on VPP with Spirent testcenter. Below 
I give two groups of running data in two different situation using the 'show 
run' command .
    In both situation VPP drop packets ( from the 'rx-miss' output in 'show 
int' command). In my opinion, when VPP begins to drop packets, the value of 
Vectors/Call should be high. So I think situation 1 is easy to understand. But 
the running
     data of situation 2 make me confused because Vectors/Call is still very 
low.
    Can anyone explains why and what's the relationship between VPP performance 
and average vectors per node?
