Hardware and Performance / Throughput on Linux KVM
« on: November 25, 2018, 12:13:51 am »
Hello,
im trying to set up a OPNsense VM with KVM as Hypervisor. I provided to virtio network adapters that correspond to a bridge on the host. For testing I ran two LXD-Containers and measuered the throughput with iperf3:
container -> container (same bridge): 7 GBit/s
container -> Windows VM (same bridge): 7 GBit/s
container -> OPNsense VM (same bridge): 1.7 GBit/s
Windows VM -> OPNSense VM: 1.5 GBit/s
container -> container (routing through OPNsense): 1.3 GBit/s
OPNsense ist in default configuration (no rules configured).
Any Ideas how to improve this?
Thanks,
Volker
