[Qemu-devel] virtio ring layout changes for optimal single-stream performance

2016-01-21 Thread Michael S. Tsirkin
Hi all! I have been experimenting with alternative virtio ring layouts, in order to speed up single stream performance. I have just posted a benchmark I wrote for the purpose, and a (partial) alternative layout implementation. This achieves 20-40% reduction in virtio overhead in the (default) pol
