+#!/bin/bash
+#
+# Script for max single flow performance
+# - If correctly tuned[1], single CPU 10G wirespeed small pkts is possible[2]
+#
+# Using pktgen "burst" option (use -b $N)
+# - To boost max performance
+# - Avail since: kernel v3.18
+# * commit 38b2cf2982dc73 ("net: pktgen: packet bursting via skb->xmit_more")
+# - This avoids writing the HW tailptr on every driver xmit
+# - The performance boost is impressive, see commit and blog [2]
+#
+# Notice: On purpose generates a single (UDP) flow towards target,
+# reason behind this is to only overload/activate a single CPU on
+# target host. And no randomness for pktgen also makes it faster.
