There has been lots of threads about this on the mailing list. The short
of it:
- increased latency !=3D slower !=3D less throughput
- make sure you have turned off all debugging (some of it needs to be
compiled out)
- LERs inherently have a higher latency then normal IP routing (IP lookup
AND label lookup or push) if you have LERs in your test path, it will
have higher latency
- mpls-linux is not optimized for speed, but for flexibility and correctness
- I welcome definitive data that proves LSR throughput is sub-optimal
- I welcome patches that provide a definitive decrease in latency or solve
any sub-optimal throughput if it exists
