Hello OVS/DPDK team,

I am using OVS+DPDK for some of my work and using 2.12.90 and 18.11.2
versions respectively. I  ran some performance tests (iperf3 for TCP and
UDP) on a c5 4xlarge AWS instance. I am supposed to get 10Gbps, however,
for TCP streams I get 2.4Gbps and UDP < 1Gbps.

Ethernet device is AWS ENA so I am using ENA PMD driver from 18.11.2.

Some output from OVS are shown below. Kindly let me know what other stats I
can look for to debug this issue.
