Hi Charlie,


Please see this preso and associated paper from Kubecon - it is a pretty 
comprehensive guide on where to start.

https://wiki.fd.io/images/3/31/Benchmarking-sw-data-planes-Dec5_2017.pdf

Also consider replicating the CSIT test environment locally.
It is very well documented and you can then inspect the best way to benchmark 
VPP etc.
