Hi, I'm running ovs on Ubuntu 11.04 and noticed that it can process max. 200Mbps (NIC's are gigabit).
It's used as an openflow switch with POX as controller and about 10 flows are installed. ovs is running with kernel module. The CPU is a quadcore Intel Xeon running at 2.2Ghz and one of the cores is fully used by vswitchd. So the CPU is limiting in this case. I'm pretty sure there are are no loops in the network. Is this normal level of performance that can be expected from ovs or could something wrong with the configuration? Kind regards and thank you in advance, Tim
