Hello,
Thanks for the answer.

Auto-adjustment looks much better.

Persistence timeout is 1800 (30 min). It is application specific.
Tried the following:
Linux Kernel 2.6.39.4 + LVS Fwmark
iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -d VIP -i bond0 -p tcp -m multiport --dports
80,443 -j MARK --set-mark 1
ipvsadm -A -f 1 -s wlc -p 1800
-a -f 1 -r 1.1.1.1:0 -i -w 100
-a -f 1 -r 1.1.1.2:0 -i -w 100
...
-a -f 1 -r 1.1.X.X:0 -i -w 100
(320 servers total)
# ipvsadm -l --daemon
master sync daemon (mcast=eth3, syncid=1)
backup sync daemon (mcast=eth3,syncid=1)
1. ip_vs_sync_conn original, schedule_timeout_interruptible(HZ/10) and
sync_threshold = "3 10"
Results: sync traffic 60 Mbit/s, 6000 packets/sec, 60 %sys CPU on Backup node,
8% difference in persistent connections between Master and Backup nodes,
netstat -s on Master SndbufErrors: 0
2. ip_vs_sync_conn patched, schedule_timeout_interruptible(HZ/10) and
sync_threshold = "3 10"
Results: sync traffic 100 Mbit/s, 8500 packets/sec, 93 %sys CPU on Backup node,
<1% difference in persistent connections between Master and Backup nodes,
netstat -s on Master SndbufErrors: 0
3. ip_vs_sync_conn patched, schedule_timeout_interruptible(HZ/10) and
sync_threshold = "3 100"
Results: sync traffic 70 Mbit/s, 6000 packets/sec, 70 %sys CPU on Backup node,
~2% difference in persistent connections between Master and Backup nodes,
netstat -s on Master SndbufErrors: 0
4. ip_vs_sync_conn patched, schedule_timeout_interruptible(HZ/10) and
sync_threshold = "3 200"
Results: sync traffic 66 Mbit/s, 5800 packets/sec, 66 %sys CPU on Backup node,
~3% difference in persistent connections between Master and Backup nodes,
netstat -s on Master SndbufErrors: 0
5. ip_vs_sync_conn patched, schedule_timeout_interruptible(HZ/10) and
sync_threshold = "3 1000"
Results: sync traffic 64 Mbit/s, 5600 packets/sec, 64 %sys CPU on Backup node,
~3% difference in persistent connections between Master and Backup nodes,
netstat -s on Master SndbufErrors: 0
In all test I can't check difference in Active and InAct connections because
ipvsadm does not show
Active and InAct connections on Backup node for Fwmark virtual, only Persist
connections.
There is no significant differences in sync traffic after "3 100".
>> As mentioned in another report

Could you explain why %sys CPU is raised with Fwmark?
Could you explain why ipvsadm does not show Active and InAct connections on
Backup node for Fwmark virtual?
