[tcpdump-workers] Packet capture performance comparison of quad-core Xeon vs Opteron

2007-06-27 Thread Jefferson Ogata
Greetings. I've read Fabian Schneider's thesis "Performance evaluation of packet capturing systems for high-speed networks", which compares capture performance under variable testing and generally finds that dual-core Opterons perform somewhat better under heavy capture load than dual-core Xeons.
