It is a define, you can change it - but I do not think it has been tested 😊. Maybe we can make it configurable through cmake also. > Since in this specific use case 1 rx-only core, and the rest tx-only cores > and all rx-packets are hand-offed to tx-cores, could there be any negative > side affect of increasing CACHE_SZ to 8K?

I think the main drawback is that you need more memory and it will lead to more cache misses, and 512 was deemed as a good value for the general case. ben
