Assess reasonable ring buffer sizes

Closed this issue · 2 comments

In order to choose optimal / better buffer sizes we should somehow measure the necessary footprint.

Details TBD...

Some findings: #74 (comment)

els0r commented

From repeating the test with latest version (ef516169) on #74: a buffer_size of 1048576 on external interfaces and 524288 on tunnel interfaces, block_size of 4 on all interfaces, there are no drops.

An exception is right after a writeout on a high-throughput host (see #149).
