[Winpcap-users] Followup question on Old Post

[Neil Powell]

Gianluca,

 

You mention that you can get WinPCAP to handle millions of packets a second.
I'd be very interested to understand the basic idea on how you got WinPCAP
to do this.    I have developed an application that currently handles
100,000 packets per second; now I need to scale it up to handle around a
1,000,000 packets per second or more.  The packet size can range from
64bytes to 1514bytes; but typically around 100bytes.  I too have been
thinking about using multiple kernel buffers and multiple threads each with
a specific filter set.   Is this the ideal way to get the best performance
from WinPCAP? If not what philosophy would you suggest? .   

 

Thanks in advance
