Just a quick followup for the archives, this was turned into PR 207916
and a workaround was committed as r296807.  A better fix, I think,
would be to separate waiting for the network interfaces to appear from
waiting for network connectivity to be functional (ping test), but I
ran into some circular-dependency problems, so I committed a "good
enough for now" workaround.

Re: Virtio network: poor network with KVM hypervisor (latest Proxmox)

[Gala IT]

Hi Alexey,

Can’t bring in much light, but here are our settings under QEMU-KVM 2.1.0 
(qemu-system-x86_64):

kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=4194304
net.inet.tcp.sendbuf_max=4194304
net.inet.tcp.recvbuf_max=4194304
net.inet.tcp.recvspace=262144
net.inet.tcp.sendspace=262144
net.inet.tcp.mssdflt=1460
net.inet.tcp.minmss=1300

net.inet.tcp.sendbuf_inc=16384
net.inet.tcp.recvbuf_inc=524288

We dind’t change any of the eth. settings:
em0: flags=8843 metric 0 mtu 1500
options=80028
nd6 options=29
media: Ethernet 10Gbase-T  (this is autodetected, we’re 
not enforcing it in any way)
status: active

We didn’t have as huge of a problem as you do, but we usually didn’t get over 
10-15 Mbps both inbound and outbound for a single TCP connection. Now we easily 
see 50Mbps ratios, which is way more reasonable, although not impressive.

IIRC the biggest change came after changing:

net.inet.tcp.mssdflt=1460
net.inet.tcp.minmss=1300

net.inet.tcp.sendbuf_inc=16384
net.inet.tcp.recvbuf_inc=524288

We’re on 9.3-RELEASE-p5.

I can’t seem to enable/disable TSO or LRO via ifconfig, neither I can find any 
sysctl tunables related to this (man vtnet reads that there should be some):

# sysctl hw. | grep vtnet
# (no output)

Hope it helps. Please let us know if you find out anything else, as we’re also 
interested in getting some more throughput out of those interfaces!

Best,
David
