Hi
I have moved recently our border router from physical to virtual (freshly installed 10.1-RELEASE-p3 AMD64 on 05.01.2015) based on Windows 2012 R2 and Hyper-V. After then I have problems with networking performance. Interrupts level raised from almost zero on physical to about 20-30% with 120 Mbps throughput and 300 users on LAN. Even worst problem is with dummynet which cuts speeds to about configured half. Additionally I have unexpected reboots caused by protection faults.
Our VM Server:
- QuadCore Intel Xeon E3-1240 v3, 3584 MHz (38 x 94)
- Mainboard Asus P9D WS
- 16 GB RAM DDR3
- Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard
VM for FreeBSD
- 4GB RAM no dynamic memory
- 4 cores of processor assigned
My question is if these issues are normal and I must go backwards to physical, or we can do something?
