They have had several multi-threading issues most are simple enough some are complex. They have confirmed that BGP WILL NOT BE MULTI-TREADED. V7 will have 10x performance on BGP though.

So they still haven't opened up their entire code base to multithreading using multiple cores? -----Original Message----- From: Af [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Dennis Burgess via Af Sent: Friday, October 24, 2014 8:56 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Mikrotik CCR and PPPoE No multi-core at all. Just optimization.

Was having some issues with higher tier packages such as our office getting more than 20mbps through a single connection. IPv6 seemed to perform better then IPv4 for speed tests. Upgraded the CCR from v6.17 to v6.20. Now every pppoe connection is screaming fast. I don't know what Mikrotik did but something has changed. I wonder if they did anything with there BGP code? We have another one doing a couple gigabit full BGP connections. Seems to work fine but one core is almost always at 100 percent. Its currently running v6.19.
