Performance Changes
-------------------
-Relative performance changes in measured packet throughput in |csit-release|
-are calculated against the results from |csit-release-1|
-report. Listed mean and standard deviation values are computed based on
-a series of the same tests executed against respective DPDK releases to
-verify test results repeatability, with percentage change calculated for
-mean values.
+Relative performance changes in measured NDR, PDR and MRR packet
+throughput in |csit-release| are calculated against the test results
+from |csit-release-1| report, for tests running on 3-Node Intel Xeon
+Haswell testbeds (3n-hsw) in 1-core, 2-core and 4-core (MRR only)
+configurations.
