Hi ,

This version of the patch seems to have negative impact on performance for 
burst traffic profile[1].
Benefits seen with the previous version (v2) was up to ~1.6x for 1568 byte 
packets compared to ~1.2x seen with the current design (v3) as measured on new 
Intel hardware that supports DSA [2] , CPU @ 1.8Ghz.
The cause of the drop seems to be because of the excessive vhost txq contention 
across the PMD threads.

So it means the Tx/Rx queue pairs aren't consumed by the same PMD
thread. can you confirm?
