[meta-intel] Xeon D1500 10G Ethernet Port

[Lai Eddy]

Thanks Raymond,

I did add the ixgbe and build/boot yocto on my Xeon D1500 board
http://www.supermicro.com/products/motherboard/Xeon/D/X10SDV-8C_-LN2F.cfm
the SFP+ 10GbE up,
but I tried to test the 2 10GbE throughput with netcat and dd on 2 Xeon
D1500 board connected
got following throughtput
1.single connection, 600MB/s, (6Gbps)
2.dual port connected with dual line traffice , got 470MB/s each (9.4Gbps 2
ports total)
3.after repeat 3 times test, the CPU loading got higher than 40%, CPU
temputure higher than 72C (4 fans full speed)
   and the throughput degrade to 420MB/s each

what's the MAX. throughput can I expect to get with 2 10Gbps SFP+ port
connected and networking data transferred  simultaneously?
