Hi All, Please for some advice. I have Linux router that do traffic control with HTB , routing and traffic counting. currently machine is with P4 2.2GHZ 1GB RAM. I plan to migrate to dual core CPU. I know well P4 dual core but is it anybody has experience with AMD64 dual core / or single core / for traffic control . I use Deban Linux for my router. Can I expect problems with HTB and iproute 2 over ATHLON DUAL CORE/BOX or single box ?
I have dual core p4 (64bit compiled) with hfsc configuration for 4500users CPU load on this machine is about 20% Average with 60Mbit/s traffic
I also want to know did the AMD (Opteron) will be better for such solution like traffic management :)
Currently my problem is that i have too big system load over CPU / 60-80%/
How many users You have ? How many pps on interfaces ? How large is traffic load (data) , what kind of traffic ? Did You use hashing filters for traffic management (filtering) ? Is this machine is doing NAT or any of iptables things ?
and packet dropping. at every 15-20sec i have traffic freeze for 1-2sec. when more users are online.
What type of interfaces You have ? Did You use NAPI if available ? _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
