Epyc VM to VM networking slow
-
No obvious solution yet, it's likely due to an architecture problem on AMD, because of CCDs and how CPUs are made. So the solution (if there's any) will be likely a sum of various small improvements to make it bearable.
I'm going to Santa Clara to discuss that with AMD directly (among other things).

@olivierlambert No more EPYC's here, that's for sure. In the future it'll be Intel again (even if they then belong to Broadcom and TMC :p)

Do we have other data to back this? The issue is not really common outside of Xen. I do hope some solution comes out from the meeting with AMD.

If we become partners officially, we'll be able to have more advanced accesses with their teams. I still have hope, it's just that the pace isn't on me.

@olivierlambert
Can we rule out extra_guest_irqs as the root cause of this problem?https://docs.xcp-ng.org/compute/#nvme-storage-devices-on-linux

It's probably completely unrelated, but feel free to test
