I was looking for anything that could get me past of 88.000 request per
seconds.
The help text told me to raise that value if I have big number of
connections. I just needed an easy way to test.
You're just repeating what I said, you "think" it should be
changed and as a result you are wasting everyones time.

You don't actually "know", you're just guessing using random
snippets from documentation rather than good hard evidence of
a need.
Hello,

I just found this year-old thread about a patch allowing the IPVS
connection hash table size to be set at load time by a module parameter.
Apparently the conclusion reached was that allowing this configuration
setting to be changed would be useless, and that the poster's
performance problems would likely lie elsewhere, since he had no
evidence it was caused by the hash table size.
Hi Mark,

thanks for your test results. I have added them to the patch.
Feel free to edit the text.
Just wondering because of this comment - do you want me to apply this
patch?
