Hi Pavan,

A couple of questions:

1. For the generic pipeline case with the SW PMD,  the tx adapter port's default dequeue depth value causes  performance regression from ~12 mpps to 7mpps. While the -c command line argument is also applicable to the tx adapter's port,  since packet flow to the tx adapter port is of a different nature than the worker ports, how about adding the  dequeue depth for the tx adapter port as a separate command line argument with a default value of 128 ?

2.  -n parameter and stats for the generic pipeline that were available in the app previously do not work, do you plan to add this functionality  ? 

Thanks,
Nikhil
