4 3n-Skx vs. 2n-Skx Testbeds
5 --------------------------
7 Relative comparison of |dpdk-release| Testpmd and L3fwd packet
8 throughput (NDR, PDR and MRR) is calculated for the same tests executed
9 on 3-Node Skylake (3n-skx) and 2-Node Skylake (2n-skx) physical testbed
10 types, in 1-core, 2-core and 4-core configurations.
