Subject: [PATCH net-next] tcp: change default tcp hash size
Date: Fri, 30 Nov 2012 12:08:52 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1354306132.20109.41.camel@edumazet-glaptop> (raw)
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
As time passed, available memory increased faster than number of
concurrent tcp sockets.
As a result, a machine with 4GB of ram gets a hash table
with 524288 slots, using 8388608 bytes of memory.
Lets change that by a 16x factor (one slot for 128 KB of ram)
Even if a small machine needs a _lot_ of sockets, tcp lookups are now
very efficient, using one cache line per socket.
