Re: [MT-AU Public] vmxnet3 in ROS now

Whatever the reason, it is certainly a very interesting and cool development - there are a growing number of RouterOS deployments like this, and it will definitely be one to watch! :)

Out of interest, what level of performance should I expect if I were to deploy RouterOS on an ESX server without the vmxnet3 driver? The use case here is as a home router - I currently use an RB1100, which routes my NBN connection with no issues, and handles routing between 3 VLANs. I often move 600-800 megabits within a VLAN, but traffic routed between VLANs is rarely more than 5-10mbps. Not sure I want to operate my router as a VM yet - introduces various new failure modes - but am curious what the performance would look like if I were to try it.
