Hello, So i've borrowed some code from the DPDK Load balancer sample application, specifically the load balancing position(byte 29th) to determine which worker lcore to forward the packet to.
The idea is that flow affinity should be maintained and all packets from the same flow would have the same checksum/5-tuple value worker_id = packet[load_balancing_field] % n_workers Question is that how reliable is this load balancing position? I am tempted to use Hash tables but I think this position based mechanism may be faster. How have people's experience with this been in general? --Kam
