I am keen to find a solution to this issue, anyone input would be appreciated. My firewall rules are limited to dropping invalid connections and anything that doesn't match my allow rules, there are 11 rules. These are VM's running on ESXi 6.0.0, similarly, I have used VMXNET3 and the Licence is P1, I won't need more than 1Gbps. I have 2x CHR routers with 8 cores of 2.6GHZ Xeon processor, doing around 15Mbps of traffic per interface (WAN and LAN) and the CPU is sitting around 15-25% which I feel is very high for the CPU spec. We have a 9 core cloud core router doing 5x more traffic and the CPU usage is around 40-50% at peak. I will need to take down production routers to do this.
I am new to this forum, I was wondering if anyone got better performance by disabling hyper threading. I have never seen any mikrotik board even come close to 1/3 to 1/2 these speeds on a btest to 127.0.0.1 If you can acheive over 25 Gig, then you are probable running on a newer high-end physical server.įYI - My CHR systems btest to 127.0.0.1 at 23.6 Gbps. If you can acheive 21 Gig or faster, then you are running on a normal decent physical server. If you can only acheive 15 Gig or less, then you are running on an old-slow-tired physical computer. And - also of note - now your processor CPU cache is more efficient and will have more CPU cache hits.įYI - With a CHR, you should be able to perform a udp btest (send or receive) to 127.0.0.1 and acheive around 20-Gig. Note - with hyper-threading disabled, the guest hosted CHR now actually has twice the power (providing you are using the same processor count). Limit other virtual hosted servers on the hyper-visor. Then on the virtual CHR router, enable 8 processors. On the hyper-visor (VmWare ESXi, set for performance. On the physical computer, in the BIOS, disable hyper-threading & set for maximum performance. A method to get more speed out of a very busy CHR router:
