Think I found it :) I first used ovs in userspace and then changed my script to use the kernel module, however "ovs-vsctl set bridge br0 datapath_type=netdev" was still called. I didn't notice the difference in the INSTALL files. Now I get 850Mbps and more at low CPU usage. Sorry for bothering you... Just to clarify the 16 packets: I didn't run any performance tests after the reboot, only ping
What are the possible values for datapath_type? Can't seem to find more information about that option...

Can you resend the output of "ovs-ofctl > dump-flows <br>" again so I can compare it to these other commands?
