Sorry; we don't really know. This post, however, might grant some reference. It looks quite optimistic: https://mail-lists.nic.mx/pipermail/jool-list/2016-September/000091.html Note, however, that it's only talking about SIIT Jool. > Does adding extra CPUs help? Yes, we have confirmed that the kernel is able to defer packets to Jool simultaneously: https://github.com/NICMx/Jool/issues/69#issuecomment-23889333 Some of Jool's code relies on spinlocks, however, so it should not scale perfectly linearly. > I'm basically wondering if it's possible to build a box for jool that can do > multi-gbit/s of imix traffic :) Sorry I'm not being very helpful, but we do not have access to a real/natural network that is able to push Jool to its limits. We rather need to rely on our users for this. Hope I didn't leave you exactly where you started.
