Subject: Re: htb parallelism on multi-core platforms
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2009 19:21:11 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1241022071.6554.375.camel@blade.ines.ro> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090429133810.GB2759@ami.dom.local>
I finally managed to disable NAPI on e1000e - apparently it can only be
done on the "official" Intel driver (downloaded from their website), by
compiling with "make CFLAGS_EXTRA=-DE1000E_NO_NAPI". This doesn't seem
to be available in the (2.6.29) kernel driver.
With NAPI disabled, 4 (of 8) cores go to 100% (instead of only one), but
overall throughput *decreases* from ~110K pps (with NAPI) to ~80K pps.
This makes sense, since h/w interrupt is much more time consuming than
polling (that's the whole idea behind NAPI anyway).
