Thanks, please post numbers. > Is there a way to run the driver (or similar) under native NetBSD, > still curious how it compares. Do you mean "native" as in "does a syscall to the host kernel"? I guess as a quick hack you could take if_virt and comment out the hypercalls. Sending should work exactly the same, netstat -bi might even tell you how much was sent. Though, if you have 10GigE, you might just as well stuff things to the NIC. If we assume a user packet framework can send in less than 100 cycles, sending from within the kernel can't be much more expensive (if at all). Those would be very interesting numbers (and hopefully not very depressing ones ;) > A buildrump.sh option to compile locks_up would be useful I guess, or > runtime switch. Yea, it might be. I've just never gotten around figuring out the performance and size impact of runtime selection. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn Graph Databases - Download FREE O'Reilly Book "Graph Databases" is the definitive new guide to graph databases and their applications.
