1gige linerate: 1,9mpps 10gige linerate: 19mpps
and intel is proud to achieve 1,6mpps at 2 10gige cards? I have seen higher values at pc hardware - but still not compareable to asics.
If you're going to specify line rate pps, please get the figures right. Line rate on GigE with minimum packet size (84 bytes including Ethernet headers, FCS, 8 byte preamble and 12 byte IFG) is: 1,000,000,000 / (84 * 8) = 1.488 Mpps </nitpicking> Steinar Haug, Nethelp consulting, sthaug@nethelp.no
