+NICs Comparison
+---------------
+
+Relative comparison of VPP packet throughput (NDR, PDR and MRR) between
+NICs (measured for |csit-release) is calculated from results of tests
+running on 3-Node Intel Xeon Haswell testbeds (3n-hsw) in 1-core, 2-core
+and 4-core (MRR only) configurations.
+
+Listed mean and standard deviation values are computed based on a series
+of the same tests executed against respective VPP releases to verify
+test results repeatability, with percentage change calculated for mean
+values. Note that the standard deviation is quite high for a small
+number of packet throughput tests, what indicates poor test results
+repeatability and makes the relative change of mean throughput value not
+fully representative for these tests. The root causes behind poor
+results repeatability vary between the test cases.
