Just thought that it might be interesting for someone ok -- I setup bonding ;-) and it works ;) with my tuned net/ip params:
net.core.wmem_max = 524288
net.core.rmem_max = 524288
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 524288 524288
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096 65536 524288
and with mtu 9000 on both ends, running two netperfs (netperf params
are -P 0 -c -C -n 2 -f K -l 20 ) to two nodes give me next
results:
(in KBytes/sec... why didn't I make it in megabits? :))
node1 node2 total
average 64276.88 82695.07 146971.95
std 20555.99 20215.57 10685.59
min 29857.41 39972.52 129420.64
max 110149.35 112383.19 166813.32
that is simplex -- ie just netperf to the nodes...
so, the results are not that great in comparison to 2 split interfaces
where each one can achieve up to max you observed in the table
may be I should have tried different MTUs... at least for duplex traffic
MTU around 3500 provide better performance...
since I am aiming at NFS I would also better check bonding performance
on NFS tests...
after all it is a cheap router ;-)
