Possible Variations

  1. Increase the Number of CPUs to 4 for the VNF.
  2. Try different forwarding VNF
  3. Different Virtual Switch (VPP)
  4. RxQ Affinity.


Notes on Documentation

  1. must view log files, qemu threads need to match the intended scenario for VM -
  2. Christian created qemu command (and documentation) - check this for VM mapping
  3. SR: CT's command is only the host
  4. qemu command line -smp 2 should do this - simulates two Numa Nodes  - need to see how the VM see it's architecture: numactl -h
