@atoonk Latest ARM based instances under AWS c8gn perform significantly better than d intel based nstances. Having that said, there are still many limitations…
Did you have chance to check GCP lately ?

Here is a brief introduction to VPP stateful layer (SFDP): https://t.co/Ld45seTmmi

Almost 2y ago I did a VPP crypto benchmark comparing VPP native engine vs Openssl engine perfomance. I did it again on a Mac M4. You can compare performance speedup...

[Jérôme Tollet @jtollet]

I just did few VPP performance tests comparing 2 VPP crypto backends available for IPSec, TLS, ... under ARM simply using my Mac M1. Native crypto performance is awesome !

People using @FDioProject VPP in the background may be interested in applying for a FOSDEM talk

@networkingox Actually VPP HostStack is open source and largely driven by @florincoras who is working at @Cisco

From home setups to data centre monsters, this talk breaks the limits on what's possible with DIY internet infrastructure. Big tech energy, built by the community. Watch the full talk here: https://t.co/vFsKlEa3cU

Pim van Pelt just showed how you can hit 1 Tbps+ using only open-source tools. That’s right—no vendor lock-in, just raw, blazing-fast routing powered by VPP and DPDK.

@atoonk @vByronM One of the problems I have identified is that AWS doesn't share the details of the burting model. For example what is the "budget" for bursting and how does it take to refill...

[Jérôme Tollet @jtollet]

@intel just released a whitepaper about their latest Xeon 6 for Networking & Security applications. @FDioProject VPP is used as a reference application for forwarding, IPSec and LB. Numbers are very interesting: https://t.co/gncUUMFI7f

[Jérôme Tollet @jtollet]

@networkingox What kind of interface is available under ios ?

[Jérôme Tollet @jtollet]

@networkingox Hopefully not in poll mode ;-)

[Jérôme Tollet @jtollet]

@UltraSive Absolutely, this is very convenient for that. However, I am not too clear on how you want to use xdp filters and hardware offload at the same time. Anyway, let me know if you face issues with af_xdp. people are currently looking at recent af_xdp features…

[Jérôme Tollet @jtollet]

@UltraSive That's totally right. But then maybe DPDK or VPP native drivers can be used. They tend to be significantly faster.

[Jérôme Tollet @jtollet]

@UltraSive What kind of offloads would you like to do on the NIC?

[Jérôme Tollet @jtollet]

@UltraSive af_xdp comes with multiple dependencies on kernel versions and some libraries. af_packet tends to be easier to use...
