Abstract :
The demand of network packet processing is increasing as applications demand more and more bandwidth and computing capability. In this paper, the characteristics of packet processing and multi-core systems are analyzed. In order to analyze the differences of serial packet processing and parallel packet processing, the packet processing model is proposed. In the end, a DPI experiment on a multi-core system has been carried out to verify the analysis. The results show the proportion of the parallel part and the load balancing of computing resources affect performance.
