Hello!
 
I have a pair of heavy loaded LVS servers.
 
HW configuration:
HP ProLiant DL360 G7, 2x X5675 @ 3.07GHz, 16GB RAM, Intel 82599EB 10-Gigabit
NIC
 
Linux Kernel 2.6.39.4 was patched to prevent "ip_vs_send_async error" as
previously discussed in
http://archive.linuxvirtualserver.org/html/lvs-users/2009-12/msg00058.html
 
ipvs_master and ipvs_backup running all the time with the following options
master sync daemon (mcast=eth3, syncid=1)
backup sync daemon (mcast=eth3, syncid=1)
 
With the default sysctl parameters net.ipv4.vs.sync_threshold = "3  50"
there is 60% difference in persistent connections between Master and Backup
nodes.
After lowering sync_threshold to "2  10" the difference was less than 9%.
 
ipvs_backup process on Backup node use 35% on single CPU core0 with "3  50"
ipvs_backup process on Backup node use 50% on single CPU core0 with "2  10"
 
I any case looks like ipvs_backup process will be a bottleneck soon.
 
Is it possible to lower cpu usage of ipvs_backup?
 
Is it possible to distribute cpu usage of ipvs_backup on multiple CPU cores?
 
 
Best regards,
Aleksey
