Hi Ciara,I got the ovs-dpdk vhostuser working. However, I am only getting
1million packet/second Max in the VM. Is there any way to increase the speed. I
have also noticed that dpdk0 port (physical port) in OVS shows 1000Mbps max.
Is this the reason? and is there any way to increase the speed?
ovs-ofctl show br0OFPT_FEATURES_REPLY (xid=0x2):
dpid:0000a0369f2ca1aan_tables:254, n_buffers:256capabilities: FLOW_STATS

Thanks
