Hardware and Performance / Re: OPNSense & NanoPi R4S (RK3399)
« on: May 04, 2022, 09:06:29 pm »
Hello
I've tested OPNSense on my NanoPi R4S. As I can see there is the same problem with speed as in OpenWRT when it's doesn't use IRQ to correct CPU Core pinning (cpu affinity). When I tested my board with Iperf3 I got CPU utilization on A53 cores insted of A72. That is why it is not possible to utilize full gigabit speed in OPNSense. I know that it's possible to do the same trick with IRQ to CPU pinning in FreeBSD, but nothing that I've tried worked. Does anybody knows how to correctly do this in FreeBSD? It would be a great home router, if it will work on full gigabit and OPNSense.
