I have begin small tests on my old server, I reach 7gbit/s

with veth or without veth, with bridge directly or openswitch.  (kernel 3.10 test only)

I'm cpu limited (2small cores), I'll try on a big 64cores server today.



(I have patchs for Network.pm to manage veth-fwbridge, do you want them to test ?)

yes, no problem. not today, but tomorrow I'll have time. 

I would like also to give some love to openvz veth management. 
Do you known where I can add some code to manage network bridge,ovs,.. ? (like for qemu in Network.pm)

Your are right (I am confused, sorry).

Yes. Do you have some time to implement that to test performance?
