dpdk will be implemented in openvswitch through vhost-user, 
I'm waiting for ovs 2.4 to look at this.

Objet: [pve-devel] The network performance future for VMs

Hi developers of PVE 

I would like to talk about of the network speed for VMs: 

I see in this link (Web official of Red Hat): 
https://videos.cdn.redhat.com/summit2015/presentations/12752_red-hat-enterprise-virtualization-hypervisor-kvm-now-in-the-future.pdf 

In the page 19 of this pdf, i see a interesting info: 
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) 
Throughput and Packets/sec "RHEL7.x + DPDK (Data Plane Development Kit)": 

Millons packets per second: 
KVM = 208 
Docker = 215 
Bare-metal = 218 
HW maximum = 225 

Between KVM and Bare-metal, the difference is little: 10 

Also i see a list of HW NICs compatibility on this link: 
http://dpdk.org/doc/nics 

So, i would like to ask about of the future of PVE in network performance 
terms. 

Best regards 
Cesar
