Hi,
Sorry for missing that setup info.
Setup Details:
NIC - Intel 82599ES 10 Gigabit Ethernet Controller(X520-DA2 adapter)
Host processor - i7-4790k processor
OS - CentOS 7.1
I am trying to send a fixed size traffic using my application.
With the same code on dpdk - 17.05.2 and dpdk- 17.08.2, I am able to get
the expected transmission rate of 9.623G for 512 bytes.
Simple run of the same code on dpdk 18.11 , gives the transmission rate of
9.6G (getting nearly 20 Mbps reduced rate). To trace back which version
cause this problem, I tried the same with the dpdk-18.02.2 and dpdk-17.11,
got the same lowest transmission rate.
Not only for 512B, for other framesizes too, observing this rate issue.
I thought it may due to any timing related API changes. I have gone through
the release notes for such timer regarding DPDK library change.I am not
able to find any hint on this.
Kindly help me to get rid of this issue.
Thanks
A.Gokilavani
