Hi Stephen and Long,
I was going through one of the netvsc patches
https://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2018-August/110559.html which mentioned
that netvsc and failsafe give the same performance in VF path whereas for
some exception path  tests, about 22% performance gain in seen.
I ran some tests locally with my dpdk app integrated with netvsc PMD and
observed that netvsc does give nearly the same performance as failsafe in
the VF path.
Since the official document does not explicitly cite this, I would like to
confirm if this holds good.
Regards,
Nandini
