Hello everyone,

We have a physical server that hosts about 400 virtual machines. Each virtual 
machine has a TAP device connected to a Linux bridge. We tried to use Linux-KVM 
suggestions for QEMU networking according to this link 
https://www.linux-kvm.org/page/10G_NIC_performance:_VFIO_vs_virtio

Unfortunately, we have a packet loss when pinging virtual machines' IP 
addresses. Pining the physical server is ok, and there is no packet loss. Would 
you please guide me on how I should find the root cause of the packet loss? 
Also, it would be great if you share your experience of connecting ~400 VMs to 
a Linux bridge and if it requires any tuning for handling this number of VMs.

Best regards,
