I just realised that :) By installing ebtables (meaning modules + userspace tool) my iperf test result drops from 81Mbps to 66Mbps: former without, latter with ebtables module enabled. I did this test between two devices connected with Fast Ethernet.
Please try tc like i said earlier ;-> cheers, jamal
I thought that most of the code is in netfilter, so shared with iptables, hence I expected a reasonable overhead why this is much worse. Does anybody have a clue about this? I should probably start a new thread on the netfilter mailing list. However this problem makes ebtables unusable at all. Suggestions are welcome :) Cheers,
