Hi,
I am having a problem with packet loss and I hope you can help me out.
When we increase the number of flows, PPM value must increase. I observed
this behavior to some point, but after that PPM value reduces. Below you
find the description of application, workload, and observations.
*Application*
I have a server-client application, a single server, and single client.
Both machines are using multiple queues to send or receive packets.
*Workload*
I'm running dpdk with fixed PPS value i.e 2 Mpps.
I'm increasing the number of flows to see the impact on PPM value.
I'm changing UDP port range to generate the number of flows.
*Observations*
Target MPPS Flows PPM
2 2 100
2 100 670
2 1000 3136
2 5000 265878
2 10000 106316
*I was expecting PPM value to rise for 10K flows, but its value reduces.*
Please share your suggestions.
Regards
Dheeraj Dang

What DPDK version? What OS? What hardware?
Did you look at xstats in DPDK?

I'm running dpdk test cases on Ubuntu 16.04 VM. xstats are not
available inside VM.
Following are the version of DPDK in Guest OS
*DPDK version : 17.08*
We are using *OVS version 2.6.1 *and *Intel Corporation Ethernet 10G 2P
X520 Adapter card.*
