-Tested Virtual Topologies
--------------------------
-
-CSIT Honeycomb functional tests are executed on virtualized topologies created
-using Virtual Internet Routing Lab (VIRL) simulation platform contributed by
-Cisco. VIRL runs on physical baremetal servers hosted by LF FD.io project. All
-tests are executed in two node logical test topology - Traffic Generator (TG)
-node and Systems Under Test (SUT1) node connected in a loop. Logical test
-topology is shown in the figure below.
-
-::
-
- +------------------------+

- | | | |
- | | | |
- | | +-----------+ | |
- | +---------------> <---------------+ |
- | | TG | |
- +------------------> <------------------+
- +-----------+
-
-SUT1 is a VM (Ubuntu or Centos, depending on the test suite), TG is a Traffic
-Generator (TG, another Ubuntu VM). SUTs run Honeycomb and VPP SW applications
-in Linux user-mode as a Device Under Test (DUT) within the VM. TG runs Scapy
-SW application as a packet Traffic Generator. Logical connectivity between
-SUTs and to TG is provided using virtual NICs using VMs' virtio driver.
-
-Virtual testbeds are created on-demand whenever a verification job is started
-(e.g. triggered by the gerrit patch submission) and destroyed upon completion
-of all functional tests. Each node is a Virtual Machine and each connection
-that is drawn on the diagram is available for use in any test case. During the
-test execution, all nodes are reachable thru the Management network connected
-to every node via dedicated virtual NICs and virtual links (not shown above
-for clarity).

-
-Operational data in Honeycomb should mirror configuration data at all times.
-Because of this, test cases follow this general pattern:
-
-#. read operational data of the feature using restconf.
-#. read status of the feature using VPP API dump.
-#. modify configuration of the feature using restconf.
-#. verify changes to operational data using restconf.
-#. verify changes using VPP API dump, OR
-#. send a packet to VPP node and observe behaviour to verify configuration
-
-Test cases involving network interfaces utilize the first two interfaces on
-the DUT node.
-
-Functional Tests Naming
------------------------
-
-CSIT |release| introduced a common structured naming convention for all
-performance and functional tests. This change was driven by substantially
-growing number and type of CSIT test cases. Firstly, the original practice did
-not always follow any strict naming convention. Secondly test names did not
-always clearly capture tested packet encapsulations, and the actual type or
-content of the tests. Thirdly HW configurations in terms of NICs, ports and
-their locality were not captured either. These were but few reasons that drove
-the decision to change and define a new more complete and stricter test naming
-convention, and to apply this to all existing and new test cases.
-
-The new naming should be intuitive for majority of the tests. The complete
-description of CSIT test naming convention is provided on `CSIT test naming
-page <https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/csit-test-naming>`_.
-
-Here few illustrative examples of the new naming usage for functional test
-suites:
-
-#. **Physical port to physical port - a.k.a. NIC-to-NIC, Phy-to-Phy, P2P**
-
- - *eth2p-ethip4-ip4base-func.robot* => 2 ports of Ethernet, IPv4 baseline
- routed forwarding, functional tests.
-
-#. **Physical port to VM (or VM chain) to physical port - a.k.a. NIC2VM2NIC,
- P2V2P, NIC2VMchain2NIC, P2V2V2P**
-
- - *eth2p-ethip4vxlan-l2bdbasemaclrn-eth-2vhost-1vm-func.robot* => 2 ports of
- Ethernet, IPv4 VXLAN Ethernet, L2 bridge-domain switching to/from two vhost
- interfaces and one VM, functional tests.

+L2 Ethernet Interface Loop
+==========================
+
+Following sections include summary graphs of DPDK Testpmd Phy-to-Phy performance
+with L2 Ethernet Interface Loop, including NDR throughput (zero packet loss)
+and PDR throughput (<0.5% packet loss). Performance is reported for Testpmd
+running in multiple configurations of Testpmd pmd thread(s), a.k.a. Testpmd
+data plane thread(s), and their physical CPU core(s) placement.
+
+Results are generated by multiple executions of the same CSIT tests.
+In order to display variation in measured throughput values, Box-and-
+whisker plots are used to show their quartiles (Min, 1st quartile / 25th
+percentile, 2nd quartile / 50th percentile / mean, 3rd quartile / 75th
+percentile, Max). Outliers are plotted as individual points.
+
+*Title of each graph* is a regex (regular expression) matching all
+throughput test cases plotted on this graph, *X-axis labels* are indices
+of individual test suites executed by csit-dpdk-perf-1704-all jobs that
+created result output files used as data sources for the graph, *Y-axis
+labels* are measured Packets Per Second [pps] values, and the *Graph
+legend* lists the plotted test suites and their indices.

-Overview

-
-Tested Physical Topologies
---------------------------
-
-CSIT VPP performance tests are executed on physical baremetal servers hosted by LF
-FD.io project. Testbed physical topology is shown in the figure below.
-
-::
-
- +------------------------+ +------------------------+
- | | | |
- | +------------------+ | | +------------------+ |
- | | | | | | | |
- | | <-----------------> | |
- | | DUT1 | | | | DUT2 | |
- | +--^---------------+ | | +---------------^--+ |
- | | | | | |
- | | SUT1 | | SUT2 | |
- +------------------------+ +------------------^-----+
- | |
- | |
- | +-----------+ |
- | | | |
- +------------------> TG <------------------+
- | |
- +-----------+
-
-SUT1 and SUT2 are two System Under Test servers (Cisco UCS C240, each with two
-Intel XEON CPUs), TG is a Traffic Generator (TG, another Cisco UCS C240, with
-two Intel XEON CPUs). SUTs run VPP SW application in Linux user-mode as a
-Device Under Test (DUT). TG runs TRex SW application as a packet Traffic
-Generator. Physical connectivity between SUTs and to TG is provided using
-different NIC models that need to be tested for performance. Currently
-installed and tested NIC models include:
-
-#. 2port10GE X520-DA2 Intel.
-#. 2port10GE X710 Intel.
-#. 2port10GE VIC1227 Cisco.
-#. 2port40GE VIC1385 Cisco.
-#. 2port40GE XL710 Intel.
-
-From SUT and DUT perspective, all performance tests involve forwarding packets
-between two physical Ethernet ports (10GE or 40GE). Due to the number of
-listed NIC models tested and available PCI slot capacity in SUT servers, in
-all of the above cases both physical ports are located on the same NIC. In
-some test cases this results in measured packet throughput being limited not
-by VPP DUT but by either the physical interface or the NIC capacity.
-
-Going forward CSIT project will be looking to add more hardware into FD.io
-performance labs to address larger scale multi-interface and multi-NIC
-performance testing scenarios.
-
-For test cases that require DUT (VPP) to communicate with VM(s) over vhost-user
-interfaces, N of VM instances are created on SUT1 and SUT2. For N=1 DUT (VPP) forwards packets between vhostuser and physical interfaces. For N>1 DUT (VPP) a logical service chain forwarding topology is created on DUT (VPP) by applying L2 or IPv4/IPv6 configuration depending on the test suite.
-DUT (VPP) test topology with N VM instances
-is shown in the figure below including applicable packet flow thru the DUTs and VMs
-(marked in the figure with ``***``).

- **********************| |**********************
- +-----------+
-
-For VM tests, packets are switched by DUT (VPP) multiple times: twice for a single VM, three times for two VMs, N+1 times for N VMs.
-Hence the external
-throughput rates measured by TG and listed in this report must be multiplied
-by (N+1) to represent the actual DUT aggregate packet forwarding rate.
-
-CSIT |release|
-
-Note that reported VPP performance results are specific to the SUTs tested.
-Current LF FD.io SUTs are based on Intel XEON E5-2699v3 2.3GHz CPUs. SUTs with
-other CPUs are likely to yield different results. A good rule of thumb, that
-can be applied to estimate VPP packet thoughput for Phy-to-Phy (NIC-to-NIC,
-PCI-to-PCI) topology, is to expect the forwarding performance to be
-proportional to CPU core frequency, assuming CPU is the only limiting factor
-and all other SUT parameters equivalent to FD.io CSIT environment. The same rule of
-thumb can be also applied for Phy-to-VM-to-Phy (NIC-to-VM-to-NIC) topology,
-but due to much higher dependency on intensive memory operations and
-sensitivity to Linux kernel scheduler settings and behaviour, this estimation
-may not always yield good enough accuracy.
-
-For detailed LF FD.io test bed specification and physical topology please refer to `LF FDio CSIT testbed wiki page <https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/CSIT_LF_testbed>`_.
-
-Performance Tests Coverage
---------------------------
-
-Performance tests are split into the two main categories:
-
-- Throughput discovery - discovery of packet forwarding rate using binary search
- in accordance to RFC2544.
-
- - NDR - discovery of Non Drop Rate packet throughput, at zero packet loss;
- followed by one-way packet latency measurements at 10%, 50% and 100% of
- discovered NDR throughput.
- - PDR - discovery of Partial Drop Rate, with specified non-zero packet loss
- currently set to 0.5%; followed by one-way packet latency measurements at
- 100% of discovered PDR throughput.
-
-- Throughput verification - verification of packet forwarding rate against
- previously discovered throughput rate. These tests are currently done against
- 0.9 of reference NDR, with reference rates updated periodically.
-
-CSIT |release| includes following performance test suites, listed per NIC type:
-

-
-Execution of performance tests takes time, especially the throughput discovery
-tests. Due to limited HW testbed resources available within FD.io labs hosted
-by Linux Foundation, the number of tests for NICs other than X520 (a.k.a.
-Niantic) has been limited to few baseline tests. Over time we expect the HW
-testbed resources to grow, and will be adding complete set of performance
-tests for all models of hardware to be executed regularly and(or)
-continuously.
-
-Performance Tests Naming
-------------------------
-
-CSIT |release| follows a common structured naming convention for all
-performance and system functional tests, introduced in CSIT rls1701.
-
-The naming should be intuitive for majority of the tests. Complete
-description of CSIT test naming convention is provided on `CSIT test naming wiki
-<https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/csit-test-naming>`_.
-
-Here few illustrative examples of the new naming usage for performance test
-suites:
-
-#. **Physical port to physical port - a.k.a. NIC-to-NIC, Phy-to-Phy, P2P**

-Methodology: Multi-Thread and Multi-Core
-----------------------------------------
-
-**HyperThreading** - CSIT |release| performance tests are executed with SUT
-servers' Intel XEON CPUs configured in HyperThreading Disabled mode (BIOS
-settings). This is the simplest configuration used to establish baseline
-single-thread single-core SW packet processing and forwarding performance.
-Subsequent releases of CSIT will add performance tests with Intel
-HyperThreading Enabled (requires BIOS settings change and hard reboot).
-
-**Multi-core Test** - CSIT |release| multi-core tests are executed in the
-following VPP thread and core configurations:
-
-#. 1t1c - 1 VPP worker thread on 1 CPU physical core.
-#. 2t2c - 2 VPP worker threads on 2 CPU physical cores.
-
-Note that in quite a few test cases running VPP on 2 physical cores hits
-the tested NIC I/O bandwidth or packets-per-second limit.
-
-Methodology: Packet Throughput
-------------------------------
-
-Following values are measured and reported for packet throughput tests:
-
-- NDR binary search per RFC2544:
-
- - Packet rate: "RATE: <aggregate packet rate in packets-per-second> pps
- (2x <per direction packets-per-second>)"
- - Aggregate bandwidth: "BANDWIDTH: <aggregate bandwidth in Gigabits per
- second> Gbps (untagged)"
-
-- PDR binary search per RFC2544:
-
- - Packet rate: "RATE: <aggregate packet rate in packets-per-second> pps (2x
- <per direction packets-per-second>)"
- - Aggregate bandwidth: "BANDWIDTH: <aggregate bandwidth in Gigabits per
- second> Gbps (untagged)"
- - Packet loss tolerance: "LOSS_ACCEPTANCE <accepted percentage of packets
- lost at PDR rate>""
-
-- NDR and PDR are measured for the following L2 frame sizes:
-
- - IPv4: 64B, IMIX_v4_1 (28x64B,16x570B,4x1518B), 1518B, 9000B.
- - IPv6: 78B, 1518B, 9000B.
-
-
-Methodology: Packet Latency
----------------------------
-
-TRex Traffic Generator (TG) is used for measuring latency of VPP DUTs. Reported
-latency values are measured using following methodology:
-
-- Latency tests are performed at 10%, 50% of discovered NDR rate (non drop rate)
- for each NDR throughput test and packet size (except IMIX).
-- TG sends dedicated latency streams, one per direction, each at the rate of
- 10kpps at the prescribed packet size; these are sent in addition to the main
- load streams.
-- TG reports min/avg/max latency values per stream direction, hence two sets
- of latency values are reported per test case; future release of TRex is
- expected to report latency percentiles.
-- Reported latency values are aggregate across two SUTs due to three node
- topology used for all performance tests; for per SUT latency, reported value
- should be divided by two.
-- 1usec is the measurement accuracy advertised by TRex TG for the setup used in
- FD.io labs used by CSIT project.
-- TRex setup introduces an always-on error of about 2*2usec per latency flow -
- additonal Tx/Rx interface latency induced by TRex SW writing and reading
- packet timestamps on CPU cores without HW acceleration on NICs closer to the
- interface line.
-
-
-Methodology: KVM VM vhost
--------------------------
-
-CSIT |release| introduced environment configuration changes to KVM Qemu vhost-
-user tests in order to more representatively measure VPP-17.01 performance in
-configurations with vhost-user interfaces and VMs.
-
-Current setup of CSIT FD.io performance lab is using tuned settings for more
-optimal performance of KVM Qemu:
-
-- Default Qemu virtio queue size of 256 descriptors.
-- Adjusted Linux kernel CFS scheduler settings, as detailed on this CSIT wiki
- page: https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/csit-perf-env-tuning-ubuntu1604.
-
-Adjusted Linux kernel CFS settings make the NDR and PDR throughput performance
-of VPP+VM system less sensitive to other Linux OS system tasks by reducing
-their interference on CPU cores that are designated for critical software
-tasks under test, namely VPP worker threads in host and Testpmd threads in
-guest dealing with data plan.
+Overview
+========
+
+Tested Physical Topologies
+--------------------------
+
+CSIT VPP performance tests are executed on physical baremetal servers hosted by
+LF FD.io project. Testbed physical topology is shown in the figure below.
+
+::
+
+ +------------------------+ +------------------------+
+ | | | |
+ | +------------------+ | | +------------------+ |
+ | | | | | | | |
+ | | <-----------------> | |
+ | | DUT1 | | | | DUT2 | |
+ | +--^---------------+ | | +---------------^--+ |
+ | | | | | |
+ | | SUT1 | | SUT2 | |
+ +------------------------+ +------------------^-----+
+ | |
+ | |
+ | +-----------+ |
+ | | | |
+ +------------------> TG <------------------+
+ | |
+ +-----------+
+
+SUT1 and SUT2 are two System Under Test servers (Cisco UCS C240, each with two
+Intel XEON CPUs), TG is a Traffic Generator (TG, another Cisco UCS C240, with
+two Intel XEON CPUs). SUTs run VPP SW application in Linux user-mode as a
+Device Under Test (DUT). TG runs TRex SW application as a packet Traffic
+Generator. Physical connectivity between SUTs and to TG is provided using
+different NIC models that need to be tested for performance. Currently
+installed and tested NIC models include:
+
+#. 2port10GE X520-DA2 Intel.
+#. 2port10GE X710 Intel.
+#. 2port10GE VIC1227 Cisco.
+#. 2port40GE VIC1385 Cisco.
+#. 2port40GE XL710 Intel.
+
+From SUT and DUT perspective, all performance tests involve forwarding packets
+between two physical Ethernet ports (10GE or 40GE). Due to the number of
+listed NIC models tested and available PCI slot capacity in SUT servers, in
+all of the above cases both physical ports are located on the same NIC. In
+some test cases this results in measured packet throughput being limited not
+by VPP DUT but by either the physical interface or the NIC capacity.
+
+Going forward CSIT project will be looking to add more hardware into FD.io
+performance labs to address larger scale multi-interface and multi-NIC
+performance testing scenarios.
+
+For test cases that require DUT (VPP) to communicate with VM(s) over vhost-user
+interfaces, N of VM instances are created on SUT1 and SUT2. For N=1 DUT (VPP)
+forwards packets between vhostuser and physical interfaces. For N>1 DUT (VPP) a
+logical service chain forwarding topology is created on DUT (VPP) by applying L2
+or IPv4/IPv6 configuration depending on the test suite.
+DUT (VPP) test topology with N VM instances
+is shown in the figure below including applicable packet flow thru the DUTs and
+VMs (marked in the figure with ``***``).
+
+::
+

+ **********************| |**********************
+ +-----------+
+
+For VM tests, packets are switched by DUT (VPP) multiple times: twice for a
+single VM, three times for two VMs, N+1 times for N VMs.
+Hence the external
+throughput rates measured by TG and listed in this report must be multiplied
+by (N+1) to represent the actual DUT aggregate packet forwarding rate.
+
+Note that reported VPP performance results are specific to the SUTs tested.
+Current LF FD.io SUTs are based on Intel XEON E5-2699v3 2.3GHz CPUs. SUTs with
+other CPUs are likely to yield different results. A good rule of thumb, that
+can be applied to estimate VPP packet thoughput for Phy-to-Phy (NIC-to-NIC,
+PCI-to-PCI) topology, is to expect the forwarding performance to be
+proportional to CPU core frequency, assuming CPU is the only limiting factor
+and all other SUT parameters equivalent to FD.io CSIT environment. The same rule
+of thumb can be also applied for Phy-to-VM-to-Phy (NIC-to-VM-to-NIC) topology,
+but due to much higher dependency on intensive memory operations and
+sensitivity to Linux kernel scheduler settings and behaviour, this estimation
+may not always yield good enough accuracy.
+
+For detailed LF FD.io test bed specification and physical topology please refer
+to `LF FDio CSIT testbed wiki page <https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/CSIT_LF_testbed>`_.
+
+Performance Tests Coverage
+--------------------------
+
+Performance tests are split into the two main categories:
+
+- Throughput discovery - discovery of packet forwarding rate using binary search
+ in accordance to RFC2544.
+
+ - NDR - discovery of Non Drop Rate packet throughput, at zero packet loss;
+ followed by one-way packet latency measurements at 10%, 50% and 100% of
+ discovered NDR throughput.
+ - PDR - discovery of Partial Drop Rate, with specified non-zero packet loss
+ currently set to 0.5%; followed by one-way packet latency measurements at
+ 100% of discovered PDR throughput.
+
+- Throughput verification - verification of packet forwarding rate against
+ previously discovered throughput rate. These tests are currently done against
+ 0.9 of reference NDR, with reference rates updated periodically.
+
+CSIT |release| includes following performance test suites, listed per NIC type:
+
+- 2port10GE X520-DA2 Intel
+

+
+- 2port40GE VIC1385 Cisco
+
+ - **L2BD** - L2 Bridge-Domain switched-forwarding of untagged Ethernet frames

+
+Execution of performance tests takes time, especially the throughput discovery
+tests. Due to limited HW testbed resources available within FD.io labs hosted
+by Linux Foundation, the number of tests for NICs other than X520 (a.k.a.
+Niantic) has been limited to few baseline tests. Over time we expect the HW
+testbed resources to grow, and will be adding complete set of performance
+tests for all models of hardware to be executed regularly and(or)
+continuously.
+
+Performance Tests Naming
+------------------------
+
+CSIT |release| follows a common structured naming convention for all
+performance and system functional tests, introduced in CSIT rls1701.
+
+The naming should be intuitive for majority of the tests. Complete
+description of CSIT test naming convention is provided on `CSIT test naming wiki
+<https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/csit-test-naming>`_.
+
+Here few illustrative examples of the new naming usage for performance test
+suites:

+ ports of 10GE on Intel x520 NIC, IPv4 VXLAN Ethernet, L2 bridge-domain
+ switching to/from four vhost interfaces and two VMs, NDR throughput

+
+Methodology: Multi-Thread and Multi-Core
+----------------------------------------
+
+**HyperThreading** - CSIT |release| performance tests are executed with SUT
+servers' Intel XEON CPUs configured in HyperThreading Disabled mode (BIOS
+settings). This is the simplest configuration used to establish baseline
+single-thread single-core SW packet processing and forwarding performance.
+Subsequent releases of CSIT will add performance tests with Intel

+following VPP thread and core configurations:
+
+#. 1t1c - 1 VPP worker thread on 1 CPU physical core.
+#. 2t2c - 2 VPP worker threads on 2 CPU physical cores.
+
+Note that in quite a few test cases running VPP on 2 physical cores hits
+the tested NIC I/O bandwidth or packets-per-second limit.
+
+Methodology: Packet Throughput
+------------------------------
+
+Following values are measured and reported for packet throughput tests:
+
+- NDR binary search per RFC2544:
+
+ - Packet rate: "RATE: <aggregate packet rate in packets-per-second> pps
+ (2x <per direction packets-per-second>)"
+ - Aggregate bandwidth: "BANDWIDTH: <aggregate bandwidth in Gigabits per

+ - Aggregate bandwidth: "BANDWIDTH: <aggregate bandwidth in Gigabits per
+ second> Gbps (untagged)"
+ - Packet loss tolerance: "LOSS_ACCEPTANCE <accepted percentage of packets
+ lost at PDR rate>""
+
+- NDR and PDR are measured for the following L2 frame sizes:
+
+ - IPv4: 64B, IMIX_v4_1 (28x64B,16x570B,4x1518B), 1518B, 9000B.
+ - IPv6: 78B, 1518B, 9000B.
+
+
+Methodology: Packet Latency
+---------------------------
+
+TRex Traffic Generator (TG) is used for measuring latency of VPP DUTs. Reported
+latency values are measured using following methodology:
+
+- Latency tests are performed at 10%, 50% of discovered NDR rate (non drop rate)
+ for each NDR throughput test and packet size (except IMIX).
+- TG sends dedicated latency streams, one per direction, each at the rate of

+- Reported latency values are aggregate across two SUTs due to three node
+ topology used for all performance tests; for per SUT latency, reported value
+ should be divided by two.
+- 1usec is the measurement accuracy advertised by TRex TG for the setup used in
+ FD.io labs used by CSIT project.
+- TRex setup introduces an always-on error of about 2*2usec per latency flow -
+ additonal Tx/Rx interface latency induced by TRex SW writing and reading
+ packet timestamps on CPU cores without HW acceleration on NICs closer to the
+ interface line.
+
+
+Methodology: KVM VM vhost
+-------------------------
+
+CSIT |release| introduced environment configuration changes to KVM Qemu vhost-
+user tests in order to more representatively measure VPP-17.04 performance in
+configurations with vhost-user interfaces and VMs.
+
+Current setup of CSIT FD.io performance lab is using tuned settings for more
+optimal performance of KVM Qemu:
+
+- Qemu virtio queue size has been increased from default value of 256 to 1024
+ descriptors.
+- Adjusted Linux kernel CFS scheduler settings, as detailed on this CSIT wiki
+ page: https://wiki.fd.io/view/CSIT/csit-perf-env-tuning-ubuntu1604.
+
+Adjusted Linux kernel CFS settings make the NDR and PDR throughput performance
+of VPP+VM system less sensitive to other Linux OS system tasks by reducing
+their interference on CPU cores that are designated for critical software
+tasks under test, namely VPP worker threads in host and Testpmd threads in
+guest dealing with data plan.

-performance illustrating NDR throughput (zero packet loss) and PDR throughput
-(<0.5% packet loss). Performance is reported for VPP running in multiple
-configurations of VPP worker thread(s), a.k.a. VPP data plane thread (s), and
-their physical CPU core(s) placement.

IPv6 Overlay Tunnels
====================
-Following sections provide a summary of VPP Phy-to-Phy IPv6 Overlay Tunnels
-performance illustrating NDR throughput (zero packet loss) and PDR throughput
-(<0.5% packet loss). Performance is reported for VPP running in multiple
-configurations of VPP worker thread(s), a.k.a. VPP data plane thread (s), and
-their physical CPU core(s) placement.
-
-*Title of each graph* is a regex (regular expression) matching all plotted
-throughput test cases, *X-axis labels* are indeces of csit-vpp-perf-1704 jobs
-that created result output files used as data sources for the graph,
-*Y-axis labels* are measured Packets Per Second [pps] values, and the *graph
-legend* identifes the plotted test suites.

VM vhost Connections
====================
-Following sections provide a summary of VPP Phy-to-VM-to-Phy VM vhost-user
-performance illustrating NDR throughput (zero packet loss) and PDR throughput
-(<0.5% packet loss). Performance is reported for VPP running in multiple
-configurations of VPP worker thread(s), a.k.a. VPP data plane thread (s), and
-their physical CPU core(s) placement.
-
-*Title of each graph* is a regex (regular expression) matching all plotted
-throughput test cases, *X-axis labels* are indeces of csit-vpp-perf-1704 jobs
-that created result output files used as data sources for the graph,
-*Y-axis labels* are measured Packets Per Second [pps] values, and the *graph
-legend* identifes the plotted test suites.
+Following sections include summary graphs of VPP Phy-to-VM(s)-to-Phy
+performance with VM virtio and VPP vhost-user virtual interfaces,
+including NDR throughput (zero packet loss) and PDR throughput (<0.5%
+packet loss). Performance is reported for VPP running in multiple
+configurations of VPP worker thread(s), a.k.a. VPP data plane thread(s),
+and their physical CPU core(s) placement.
+
+Results are generated by multiple executions of the same CSIT tests.
+In order to display variation in measured throughput values, Box-and-
+whisker plots are used to show their quartiles (Min, 1st quartile / 25th
+percentile, 2nd quartile / 50th percentile / mean, 3rd quartile / 75th
+percentile, Max). Outliers are plotted as individual points.
