Hi Matus,

Thanks!


Any suggestions on what that can be done to alleviate the issues?

The above test was done with a single client, but the same symptoms are shown 
when throwing far more flows at it, around 5.5 million sessions, from thousands 
of L3 sources.?


John

Hi,

in your case most of NAT translations are done in one core. With 4 cores you 
are lucky and flows arrive at same core where translations are processing (no 
worker handoff) and with 10 cores there is worker handoff between two workers 
and it is reason of performance drop. Basically your flows are not 
symmetrically distributed between cores.

Hi Damjan,

Absolutely.

I raw one case with the default number of NAT workers (10) which has poor 
performance, and another case with a fewer number of NAT workers (4) showing 
great performance. They're separated by two different files, both are attached.
