It should be improved in 1.10, but it will likely not be at the level you want. 
We're in the process of adding wildcarding to the kernel, and depending on your 
flow table and configuration, will yield significant performance benefits. If 
you are just doing normal L2 learning, it should be very close to the Linux 
bridge's performance. The patch that glues the new userspace and kernel logic 
will be going out early next week. Once that's out, you can test it for 
yourself. We're aiming to have the changes land in 1.11.
