4 Following sections provide a summary of VPP Phy-to-VM-to-Phy VM vhost-user
5 performance illustrating NDR throughput (zero packet loss) and PDR throughput
6 (<0.5% packet loss). Performance is reported for VPP running in multiple
7 configurations of VPP worker thread(s), a.k.a. VPP data plane thread (s), and
8 their physical CPU core(s) placement.
10 Title of each graph is a regex (regular expression) matching all plotted
11 test case throughput measurements.
15 Data sources for reported test results: i) FD.io test executor jobs
16 `csit-vpp-perf-1701-all
