减少网卡中断收包产生的CPU消耗

目标：减少网卡中断收包产生的CPU消耗。

优化的措施：

1，  减少收包的队列数：igb.RSS

2，  减少中断调用的次数：rx-usecs

 

Some useful tips：

1，  IGB driver requires the following parameter

igb.RSS

which demonstrates the number of Receive-Side Scaling (RSS)descriptor queues，in the case, it reduces from 8 to 5 which means enable 5 queues。

 

2，  rx-usecs

The parameterto modify are called interrupt coalescing parameters,  It is the number of usecs to wait beforeraising an RX interrupt after a packet has been received, when rx-usesc is setto 0 rx-frames is used.

  You may wish toreduce rx-usecs if latency is more important and you are using a low-latencyswitch or a point-to-point connection. Similarly, you may wish to increaserx-usecs if you are interested in reducing CPU overhead for large transfers.Note that rx-usecs controls both transmit and receive coalescing, In the
