Thanks Ray I could see that at VPP, I could receive at line rate of 10G, process and send out the traffic (macswap)
When I tried to use the test_server / test_client (vcl_test_client), I could not go beyond 3.5G rate in stream test mode. It is probably because of VCL sockets being used to send and receive SINGLE packets at the vcl_test_client . It does not do multiple packet processing like VPP does. How would I get near line of packet send /receive using VCL in my application ? I see recvmmsg kind of function in VCL but it is still not implemented using vpp library.

If your intention is to do something monolithic like a tightly integrated VNF application. A VNF with L2, L3, L4 and app as an integrated appliance. Then the plugin _might_ make the sense for you, however I suspect that VCL library might still be easier to maintain and integrate with in this instance However if you intend to use a vSwitch on the system or you anticipate that a vSwitch will be used in the system. You can integrate the L2, L3 and L4 with the (VPP) vSwitch and have your App sit on VCL. This ends up being simplier and more lightweight, but you need to know that VPP can be your vSwitch.
