The concept of network functions virtualization (NFV) has been embodied in commercial networks over the past years. Software-based virtual network functions have forwarding performance concerns in general, and various acceleration technologies have been developed so far, such as DPDK and vhost-user. Existence of several alternatives requires network engineers or operators to select appropriate technologies; however, no pragmatic criterion exists for constructing high-performanceNFV-nodes. From their points of view, a lack of common benchmark and understanding ofperformance characteristics makes it difficult to predict hop-by-hop performance in a service chain, which results in prevention of NFV deployment in mission-critical networks. In this paper, we clarify performance characteristics of packet forwarding in NFV nodes focusing on three types ofacceleration technologies; packet I/O architecture, virtual network I/O, and forwarding engine in a practical stage. We examined three packet I/O architectures (NAPI, netmap, and DPDK), three virtual I/O mechanisms (vhost-net, vhost-user, and SR-IOV), and four practical forwarding programs (Open vSwitch, OVS-DPDK, xDPd-DPDK, and Lagopus) with three referential programs (Linux Bridge, VALE, and L2FWD-DPDK). The experiment was conducted on a 40 GbE environment and we examined two device-under-test machines having different CPU performance. We argue performance characteristics of each technology and give quantitative analyses of the result. The key findings are: 1) CPU core speed has impact on both throughput and latency/jitter; 2) DPDK can allow performance prediction; 3) vhost-user is appropriate for real environment; and 4) OVS-DPDK provides a good combination ofperformance and functionality.
