-\r
-Measured improvements are in line with VPP code optimizations listed in\r
-`VPP-17.04 release notes\r
-<https://docs.fd.io/vpp/17.04/release_notes_1704.html>`_.\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

+Release Notes
+=============
+
+Changes in |csit-release|
+-------------------------
+
+#. VPP PERFORMANCE TESTS
+
+ - **Enhanced and added VPP hoststack tests** to daily and weekly
+ trending including: Quic VPP Echo, UDP+TCP LD_PRELOAD iPerf3,
+ LD_PRELOAD NGINX.
+
+ - **Added Nvidia/Mellanox DPDK tests** to daily and weekly trending
+ and report, in addition to RDMA_CORE ones that were already
+ there.
+
+ - **Jumbo frames tests** got fixed and re-added number of to report
+ coverage tests.
+
+ - **Intel Xeon SKX performance testbeds** got decommissioned and
+ removed from FD.io performance lab.
+
+#. TEST FRAMEWORK
+
+ - **CSIT test environment** version has not changed from ver. 11 used
+ in previous release, see :ref:`test_environment_versioning`.
+
+ - **CSIT PAPI optimizations for scale** got applied improving PAPI
+ programming speed especially for large scale tests. VAT has been
+ now completely deprecated from CSIT.
+
+ - **General Code Housekeeping**: Ongoing code optimizations and bug
+ fixes.
+
+#. PRESENTATION AND ANALYTICS LAYER
+
+ - `Performance dashboard <http://csit.fd.io/>`_ got updated with
+ addition of VPP telemetry trending across all VPP tests. A number
+ of code and AWS resource usage optimizations got applied to the
+ data processing pipeline and UI frontend and backend.
+
+ - Examples of release iterative data visualisation:
+
+ - `Packet throughput 2n-icx-e810cq-ip4-base-scale-pdr <https://csit.fd.io/report/#eNrdVcluwjAQ_Zr0ggbZDml64QDkP5BxhhJlwYxNVPr1OAhpYiGO7cEHb3pv1qeRnT8T7h1266zYZuU2U2VThy3LN4twUOdULhSM1oLKl-FG2KF2CGqAxvyAFOIblZX4JYW5gB6P0NgVfK4OIA2gP02vsA6Tja1pcq12T9cvcRitr57RED1CRiQGo7SYZk-3GeddsszXhJoNQsYMeXSzZOKamHUk3aNrfpGpoQuMm9BohqSJ_fubnaHPRpXVg_F3qjijO1RCtEBDnZo8UXFJ6NQmKlGbgjp9ujPU_8cEFdXHcKb-8Q8V1R2PI8PX>`_

+| 1 | `CSIT-1887 | rls2210 RCA: ASTF tests |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1887>`_ | TRex upgrade decreased TRex performance. NAT results not affected, |
+| | | except on Denverton due to interference from VPP-2010. |

+| 2 | `CSIT-1888 | rls2210 RCA: testbed differences, especially for ipsec |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1888>`_ | Not caused by VPP code nor CSIT code. |
+| | | Most probable cause is clang-14 behavior. |

+| 3 | `CSIT-1889 | rls2210 RCA: policy-outbound-nocrypto |
+| | <https://jira.fd.io/browse/CSIT-1889>`_ | When VPP added spd fast path matching (Gerrit 36097), |
+| | | it decreased MRR of the corresponding tests, at least on 3-alt. |
