@mihaibrodschi there are two failures in the advanced test (see https://forge.uclouvain.be/ensg/fastclick/-/pipelines/53850). Not sure if you have access, but basically, I am building with ```./configure CXXFLAGS="-std=gnu++11" --disable-batch --enable-simtime && make clean...

So there was another problem. First with batching enabled, the default burst is still to read 32 packets. So reading 32 packets leads to very large imprecision in terms of...

Yes indeed. It's not really a bug, it's a different "default" behavior (which is not appreciable). I thought of the "internal queue" solution but maybe that should be another element...

Is it something you ran into? Do you have a test case to demonstrate? In practice though I would recommend using the RSS++ solution instead of the thread balancer.

The thing is this bug comes straight from Click, I haven't used or modified those parts (scheduling and threadbalancer) myself so it's hard to help here. You can try to...

Are you sure about the VPP measurement? Intel 810 are notoriously not able to sustain the traffic on both ports. I even heard some vendors classify the second port as...

Yes, two NICs would behave differently than one NIC with two ports. The number of RX descriptors is set with nb_rxd in the config.toml. But I wouldn't expect magic on...

The cleanest way would be to check if the stripping is supported through DPDK capacity flags, and if not, do it in software yes. I didn't know DDP was programmable...

I meant it should be checked and runtime and use software only if HW is not supported, just to be sure. Yes definitely some NIC won't support PPPoE or any...
