      Hello,
      I have the following issue with our setup, we connected 2x10G -> Lagg1 (7100 2.6 OS version) to our core switch(2x10g) as LACP (the topology is a router on a stick ), the problem is that when we copy some data to VLAN 7 to VLAN 3 the maximum speed is 800mbs and the CPU goes to 80% , in that moment the IPSec tunnels go down for that time that the intervlan copy is running. Did you find some fine tunning or installed a new driver for the IX network cards? I also used this, but the improvement is very low.
      Intel ix(4) Cards
      In /boot/loader.conf.local:

      kern.ipc.nmbclusters="1000000"
      kern.ipc.nmbjumbop="524288"
      As a sysctl (system tunable):

      hw.intr_storm_threshold="10000"

        Try this

        hw.ibrs_disable=1
        net.isr.maxthreads=-1
        net.isr.bindthreads = 1
        net.isr.dispatch = deferred
        net.inet.rss.enabled = 1
        net.inet.rss.bits = 6
        kern.ipc.maxsockbuf = 614400000
        net.inet.tcp.recvbuf_max=4194304
        net.inet.tcp.recvspace=65536
        net.inet.tcp.sendbuf_inc=65536
        net.inet.tcp.sendbuf_max=4194304
        net.inet.tcp.sendspace=65536
        net.inet.tcp.soreceive_stream = 1
        net.pf.source_nodes_hashsize = 1048576
        net.inet.tcp.mssdflt=1240
        net.inet.tcp.abc_l_var=52
        net.inet.tcp.minmss = 536
        kern.random.fortuna.minpoolsize=128
        net.isr.defaultqlimit=2048

            @Cool_Corona, dummy question those can be added via system tunable or on the /boot/loader.conf.local?
            Thanks.
