I would like to add that GRO also cause stretched ACKs (acking up to 64KB), and GRO is crucial to reduce cycles for +10Gbps transfers on some architectures. > And if there is such an advantage, does it outweight the disadvantages > that the extra ack packets cause by causing highly asymmetric links to be > overloaded and drop packets? > > David Lang > > > _______________________________________________ > aqm mailing list > aqm@ietf.org > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/aqm >
