+#. **Added VPP performance tests**\r
+\r
+ - **MRR tests** : New MRR tests measure the packet forwarding rate\r
+ under the maximum load offered by traffic generator over a set\r
+ trial duration, regardless of packet loss. Maximum load for\r
+ specified Ethernet frame size is set to the bi-directional link\r
+ rate. MRR tests are used for continuous performance trending and\r
+ for comparison between releases.\r
+\r
+ - **SRv6** : Initial SRv6 (Segment Routing IPv6) tests verifying\r
+ performance of IPv6 and SRH (Segment Routing Header)\r
+ encapsulation, decapsulation, lookups and rewrites based on\r
+ configured End and End.DX6 SRv6 egress functions.\r
+\r
+#. **Presentation and Analytics Layer (PAL)**\r
+\r
+ - Added continuous performance measuring, trending and anomaly\r
+ detection. Includes new PAL code and Jenkins jobs for Performance\r
+ Trending (PT) and Performance Analysis (PA) producing performance\r
+ trending dashboard and trendline graphs with summary and drill-\r
+ down views across all specified tests that can be reviewed and\r
+ inspected regularly by FD.io developers and users community.\r
+\r
+#. **Test Framework Optimizations**\r
+\r
+ - **Performance tests efficiency** : Qemu build/install\r
+ optimizations, warmup phase handling, vpp restart handling.\r
+ Resulted in improved stability and reduced total execution time by\r
+ 30% for single pkt size e.g. 64B/78B.\r
+\r
+ - **General code housekeeping** : ongoing RF keywords\r
+ optimizations, removal of redundant RF keywords.\r
+\r
+Performance Changes\r
+-------------------\r
+\r
+Relative performance changes in measured packet throughput in CSIT\r
+|release| are calculated against the results from CSIT |release-1|\r
+report. Listed mean and standard deviation values are computed based on\r
+a series of the same tests executed against respective VPP releases to\r
+verify test results repeatibility, with percentage change calculated for\r
+mean values. Note that the standard deviation is quite high for a small\r
+number of packet throughput tests, what indicates poor test results\r
+repeatability and makes the relative change of mean throughput value not\r
+fully representative for these tests. The root causes behind poor\r
+results repeatibility vary between the test cases.\r

\r
-Additionally, vhost-VM performance improvements are due to both VPP code\r
-optimizations as well as due to the FD.io CSIT Linux KVM test environment\r
-optimizations for vhost-VM tests - see section "2.1.7. Methodology: KVM VM\r
-vhost".\r
