Subject: [Cerowrt-devel] performance numbers from WRT1200AC (Re: Latest build
test - new sqm-scripts seem to work; "cake overhead 40" didn't)

published a great set of instructions for setting up sqm-scripts under
openwrt proper.
I tried it on Linksys WRT1200AC with OpenWrt CC RC2. I configured sqm to have
800 megabit/s each direction, and ran iperf3 over IPv4 with NAT44 from Linux
box behind WRT1200AC to an OSX macbook connected on a switch on the same L2
subnet as the WAN port.
Linux <->WRT1200AC<->switch<->OSX
I get 765 megabit/s of throughput using single session, at sirq load of around
25%. If I lower the mss to 300 (to generate higher pps) I get around 560
megabit/s of throughput at 50% sirq. With 10 parallel TCP sessions, I get about
the same. At MSS of 200 bytes, I get 400 megabit/s at 70% sirq.
If I turn off SQM completely, I get 600 megabit/s at 200 byte MSS single
session at 80% sirq and 930 megabit/s at 26% sirq with default MSS.
So if you want high performing device that is OpenWRT compatible and still does
forwarding using CPU so you can test queuing algorithms, the WRT1200AC and
WRT1900ACv2 is the best I have been able to find currently (unless you go for
x86 platform).
