Hello FreeBSD Transport experts= ,

 

We are evaluating performance o= f FreeBSD 13 VM on ESX hypervisor in long RTT setup and happened to compare= the performance with Linux VM with same hypervisor.

We see a substantially better p= erformance with Linux getting close to the BDP limit, whereas BSD 13 not fi= lling up the pipe enough.

We are trying to figure out wha= t could lead to such a huge difference and feel we could be missing somethi= ng here.

 

Could you please help us to kno= w if there is a way to make it perform better?

 

Setup details:

 

We have 2 ESX hypervisors where= 2 VMs (one FreeBSD 13 and one Ubuntu 23.04/Linux kernel 6.2) were launched= on each hypervisor.

Then we ran iperf between,=

  1. BSD 13 <-> BSD 13
    2. Ubuntu <-> Ubuntu

     

    Even though the network environ= ment were same in both cases, we see Ubuntu performing much better.

     

    Below are connection parameters= :

    Socket buffer: 16MB<= /span>

    TCP CC Algo: Cubic. We used thi= s as this is suitable for Long Fat Networks.

    Ping RTT:  100 ms between = the two end points.

    We kept all other parameters to= default on both Linux and BSD.

     

    BDP for 16MB Socket buffer: 16 MB * (1000 ms * 100ms latency) * 8 bits/ 1024 =3D 1.25 Gbps

     

    Ubuntu consistently hits around= 1 Gbps Bitrate almost reaching the BDP limit.

    FreeBSD 13 shows a Bit rate bet= ween the range of 300-600 Mbps = only. So it seems to be doing half as good as Linux.

    For lower socket buffer of 4MB,= both FreeBSD and Linux seem to do same and able to meet BDP of 300 Mbps co= nsistently.

    Larger socket buffer seems to h= ave an issue.

     

    Please let us know if there are= ways to fine tune the system parameters to make BSD perform better.

    Or any other suggestions/querie= s welcome.

     

    Regards

    Murali
