No it is not too old :)

Ah OK interesting to know.
Which kernel is it?
Could you profile what is done in kernel side?

I am using 16.07. Is it already 'too old'? -_-;;;

Almost time is spent on mmap() not the memset()

I guess you are using an old DPDK.


You just need to upgrade :)

Which DPDK version are you using? In DPDK16.04, below url did some optimization 
work.

Subject: [dpdk-users] Too much time in mmap()

Hi,

Too much time is spent on mmap() in rte_eal_init().
When running DPDK application with 35 1G huge pages, it takes about 12sec in 
mapping().
Is there any way to reduce this time?

I guess it is okay to have that much time in first initialization. However, if 
the application is restarted for some reason(for example, unexpected
exit) that long initialization can cause service continuity.


May the Fun with you.
