Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 3/5] testpmd: Change rxfreet default to 32
Date: Wed, 17 Sep 2014 11:01:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1410948102-12740-4-git-send-email-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1410948102-12740-1-git-send-email-bruce.richardson@intel.com>

To improve performance by using bulk alloc or vectored RX routines, we
need to set rx free threshold (rxfreet) value to 32, so make this the
testpmd default.
