gonzo··on Need a PRNG? Use a CSPRNG
it's entirely straight-forward to substitute AES-256-GCM for ChaCha20/Poly1305 in Wireguard, and the result, while not "wireguard" is substantially faster than Wireguard.
gonzo··on PacketMill: Toward per-Core 100-Gbps networking (2021)
One wonders why they saddled VPP with DPDK, rather than a VPP native driver that will do 35Mpps or more, but allowed themselves to modify a DPDK driver to show their results.
gonzo··on ZFS 2.2.1: Block Cloning disabled due to data corruption
and then there were deep concerns about the stability of same, so vfs.zfs.bclone_enabled = 0 was left in-place

gonzo··on Vector Packet Processing
VPP has been shown to run at 22.1 Mpps on a single core of Gracemont (the efficient / Atom core in Alder Lake), and 42.3 Mpps on 2 cores. (Intel E810 4x25 NIC, DPDK 22.0, VPP 22.06, GCC 9.4.0, RFC 2544 test with packet loss <= 0.1%.

The same core will do 14.99Gbps of IPsec (aes-128-gcm, 1480 byte packets) using VPP, largely because it supports (VEX-encoded) VAES.

While these aren't ARM cortex A72s, they're quite close (cheap low power) for Intel.

> Netgate is just putting a wrapper around other people's (Cisco's) code.

Cisco open sourced VPP in 2016 and we've been busy working on it ever since.

125 dB?

Just “dB” is unit-less. It’s like saying the sound pressure level is “6”.

gonzo··on FreeBSD at 30: Its secrets to success
FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE was announced January 19, 2003.

Matt Dillon announced DragonFly BSD nearly 20 years ago on July,16 2003

FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE was announced Nov 25, 2009

You’re talking about events that took place over 13.5 years ago.

On the benchmarks:

Where are the Apache, NginX, PostgreSQL and Redis benchmarks?

Where are the measurements of network performance?
