Hi Oliver, Sorry for the late reply but I had a lot of work. I got access to another server with two Xeon E5-4650v2 cpus and the result were better. I could generate 14M pps form the 4 core E5520 and I could see somewhere between 10M and 11M pps routed over the 2xE5-4650v2. I made a test to enable IPFW and the throughput went down to about 6M pps. When I was looking at you bench results I think I saw similar results. Thanks a lot for the help.
