Really useful and concise - thank you. It makes me think how useful a 'guide to ethtool' might be, showing the various tunables in the kernel network stack.

Another subtopic is '10G vs 1G NICs'. Settings from the MTU to the queue sizes are all different and buffers are often on the cards themselves.

This is a great topic and I wish I could find more like it. I stumble across articles like this but rarely find them on my own - thanks HN.




Or you can program 1G and 10G ethernet cards from userspace if you want to learn how the driver layer works https://github.com/SnabbCo/snabbswitch


Thanks. I'm glad you found it useful.
