[E1000-devel] MQ disabled VS same core affinity

[Tal A. <tal...@gm...>]

Hi All
Maybe a silly question.. But...
When testing high performance (packet-rate) on a system with igb/ixgbe
nics, is there difference if i turn multi queue off or I set each queues
affinity to the same CPU ?

My hunch says that MQ off (single queue) is better since the controller
doesn't need to select the right queue for each RX/TX packet, but maybe
it's negligible...

Thanks,
