.. _dpdk_compare_topologies_3n-Skx_vs_2n-Skx: 3n-Skx vs. 2n-Skx Testbeds -------------------------- Relative comparison of |dpdk-release| Testpmd and L3fwd packet throughput (NDR, PDR and MRR) is calculated for the same tests executed on 3-Node Skylake (3n-skx) and 2-Node Skylake (2n-skx) physical testbed types, in 1-core, 2-core and 4-core configurations. .. note:: Test results have been generated by `FD.io test executor dpdk performance job 3n-skx`_ and `FD.io test executor dpdk performance job 2n-skx`_ with RF result files csit-dpdk-perf-|srelease|-\*.zip `archived here <../../_static/archive/>`_.
