In early January 2012, I posted a list of my 2012 projects. In late June 2012, my mid-year project update let you know that I was dropping the Perl efforts, but sticking it out with German, Xen/OVS/OpenStack, and CCNP. Finally, in early January 2013 I graded myself on my progress on my 2012 goals.

In recent years, we’ve seen more devices running off-the-shelf software (like Linux). Is the Linux bridge efficient enough? What Intel has been working on is replace the VirtIO drivers with DPDK-enabled VirtIO drivers, and use DPDK to replace the Linux bridging utilities with a DPDK-enabled forwarding application.
