Subject:   What is rx_processing_limit sysctl for Intel igb NIC driver?
Message-ID:  <CAHMRaQeQGfwx4yLP6_nZWVePHoKeGgW6bOh9MSUoN20Hg%2B7iOw@mail.gmail.com>

I am tuning our server that has an Intel 82576 gigabit NIC using the igb
driver. I see a lot of posts on the net where people bump the
rx_processing_limit sysctl from the default value of 100 to 4096. Can
anyone tell me what this is intended to do?

Thanks!

Andy
