COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

-General:

It seems a bit odd to me to use an IETF stream RFC to describe the status of an
open source project, even when that project is closely related to IETF work.
But I do not object strongly enough to get in the way of publication.

-3.4: "It is essential to increase the flow timeout   time on a vswitch before
conducting any performance tests that do not   intend to measure the flow setup
time."

Does this mean to make allowances for the startup characteristics of virtual
network elements, when physical elements might not have such limitations?  That
seems sort of like optimizing for the test.

-4, figures:

Figure numbers and cross references would be very helpful for this section.
