VPP PERFORMANCE TESTS - - **Experimental Soak Tests**: Added performamce soak tests framework - code for extended time duration tests and throughput discovery - at given PLR and at give total test time e.g. minutes, hours, - days, weeks, months, years. See updated - :ref:`test_methodology` section for more details. + - **Service density 2n-skx tests**: Network Function Virtualization (NFV) + service density tests focus on measuring total per server throughput at + varied NFV service *packing* densities with vswitch providing host + dataplane. The goal is to compare and contrast performance of a shared + vswitch for different network topologies and virtualization technologies, + and their impact on vswitch performance and efficiency in a range of NFV + service configurations. -#.
