Hi,

We are performing experiments on Dell Poweredge R430 server, which is 
based on Haswell architecture based xeon-2640 v3 processor. We have 
attached XL 710 NIC(2x40 GbE) to the machine and expect 59 Mpps packet 
generation per port. But pktgen is able to generate only 21 Mpps per 
port and we are not sure about the problem.

We are using DPDK version 16.07 and DPDK-pktgen version 3.1.0. Is there 
any way to generate packets from pktgen at 118 Mpps ?
