Wow!! thanks Raja, Never thought about that
after checking the logs its clear now, 5 threads are not assigned to any CPU and rest are all pinned 1:1 :) Regarding distribution of packets to to those cores,in kernel mode vrouter there is pkt3 interface to do packet distribution,in DPDK-vrouter i dont see that interface in vif --list,how is it achieved in DPDK-Vrouter with out this interface .
