-\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
-\r
-\r
-Other Performance Changes\r
--------------------------\r
+#. **VPP performance tests**\r
+\r
+ - *MRR tests* - New Maximum Receive Rate tests measure the packet\r
+ forwarding rate under the maximum load offered by traffic\r
+ generator over a set trial duration, regardless of packet loss.\r
+ MRR tests are used for continuous performance trending and for\r
+ comparison between releases.\r
+\r
+ - *Service Chaining with SRv6* - New SRv6 (Segment Routing IPv6) proxy\r
+ tests measure performance of SRv6 Endpoint fronting SR-unaware\r
+ appliance via masquerading (End.AM), dynamic proxy (End.AD) or\r
+ static proxy (End.AS) SR functions.\r
+\r
+#. **Presentation and Analytics Layer**\r
+\r
+ - *Performance trending* - Added continuous performance trending and\r
+ analysis. New Performance Trending and Performance Analysis jobs\r
+ executed regular throughput tests, with results being subsequently\r
+ analysed and trend and anomalies summarized and presented in VPP\r
+ Performance Dashboard and trendline graphs.\r
+\r
+#. **Test Framework Optimizations**\r
+\r
+ - *Performance tests efficiency* - Qemu build/install optimizations,\r
+ warmup phase handling, vpp restart handling. Resulted in improved\r
+ stability and reduced total execution time by 30% for single pkt\r
+ size e.g. 64B/78B.\r
+\r
+ - *General code housekeeping* - ongoing RF keywords optimizations,\r
+ 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

+provides continuous performance trending for VPP master branch:\r
+\r
+#. `VPP Performance Dashboard <https://docs.fd.io/csit/master/trending/introduction/index.html>`_\r
+ - per VPP test case throughput trend, trend compliance and summary of\r
+ detected anomalies.\r
+\r
+#. `Trending Methodology <https://docs.fd.io/csit/master/trending/methodology/index.html>`_\r
+ - throughput test metrics, trend calculations and anomaly\r
+ classification (progression, regression, outlier).\r
+\r
+#. `Trendline Graphs <https://docs.fd.io/csit/master/trending/trending/index.html>`_\r
+ - per VPP build MRR throughput measurements against the trendline\r
+ with anomaly highlights, with associated CSIT test jobs.\r
