Marion,
Thank you for the feedback. This should give me enough to scratch out some

Hello,
I am looking to understand the math and reasoning behind the 16K DPDK MBUFs per
socket allocation.
From: vpp/src/plugins/dkdp/device/dpdk.h
#define NB_MBUF (16<<10)

I have tried to adjust the num-mbufs to a value higher than 42 and this
resulted in daemon crash about 1.3 minutes after starting it.
This is happening on
-vpp v18.04-rc0~218-g07510dd
-CentOS 7.4 - 4.15.0-1.el7.elrepo.x86_64
