[E1000-devel] MSI-X interrupts and multiple receive queues

[Patrick S. <pa...@ne...>]

Hi,

Will the e1000 driver support multiple sets of receive queues (slices) 
at any time?

We operate a linux load balancer (LVS) which does over 500k pps. One CPU 
core can't handle the interrupts from one nic. Balancing the interrupts 
over multiple cores is bad for performance. Binding slices to different 
CPU cores will help to increase the maximum throughput.

Thanks,
