Hi, guys
Last week I did some performance test on VPP with Spirent testcenter. Below I
give two groups of running data in two different situation using the 'show run'
command . Inboth situationVPP drop packets ( from the 'rx-miss' output in 'show
int' command). In my opinion, when VPP begins to drop packets, the value of
Vectors/Call should be high. So I think situation 1 is easy to understand. But
the running data of situation 2 make me confused because Vectors/Call is still
very low.
Can anyone explains why and what's the relationship between VPP performance and
average vectors per node?
