Here is a Go design using DPDK called NFF-Go https://www.dpdk.org/hosted-projects/ Go is fast, but calling ‘C’ code from Go is very expensive as Go needs to do some conversion from ‘C’ <-> ‘Go’. The NFF-Go code calls DPDK to process packets at a much higher level then just having wrapper routines around every DPDK API, this will be the same thing for VPP is my guess. > > > > On 13 Mar 2019, at 19:42, OMER AHARONIAN <omerpo...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > Hi, > > > > My name is Omer and I'm planning to start using VPP as part of a project > > I'm working on.
