Hi,

setting

ovs-vsctl set Open_vSwitch . other_config:n-dpdk-rxqs=2

did not create two queues inside the guest, from the name of the command i 
guess it sets the number of rx queues for the pmd host interface to 2, but not 
the vhost-user interface for the vm.
Im using branch-2.5 because a bug i encountered regarding vhost-thread was 
fixed 6 days ago on that branch.

Best regards
Felix

Hi,

If you are using branch-2.5 you cannot use the n_rxq field. Instead you need to 
set multiple queues like so:
ovs-vsctl set Open_vSwitch . other_config:n-dpdk-rxqs=4

This sets the number of rxqs for all devices to 4.

Thanks,
Ciara
