RFS can exhibit lower performance for workloads using short-lived flows and a small set of 4-tuple. This is often the case for load-testers, using a pair of hosts, if the server has a single listener port. Typical use case : Server : tcp_crr -T128 -F1000 -6 -U -l30 -R 14250 Client : tcp_crr -T128 -F1000 -6 -U -l30 -c -H server | grep local_throughput This is because RFS global hash table contains stale information, when the same RSS key is recycled for another socket and another cpu. Make sure to undo the changes and go back to initial state when a flow is disconnected. Performance of the above test is increased by 22 %, going from 372604 transactions per second to 457773.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
