[Xen-users] pfsense HVM network performance

[Jonathan Tripathy <jonnyt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Everyone,

Just to let everyone know of my experience of network speed on pfsense HVM.

Initially, I started off by doing PCI passthrough for my WAN NIC, and 
used e1000 emulation for LAN. Speed was capping at 90Mbp/s.
When both were set to e1000, speed was capping at 30Mbp/s

When LAN was set to e1000 and WAN was set to default (rl8xxx), speed was 
capping at 71Mbp/s.
I wish I could have stayed with the first option, however my link speed 
is only detected at 10Mbps unless I take the cable out and in 2 or 3 times.
Any tips on the above? In some cases, to get the above speed, I had to 
enable "device polling" in pfsense
Thanks
