Hello @junousi, it is usually better to handle such discussions in iperf3 "discussion" (see "Discussions" at the top line). However, it this case I think that it is better to handle this discussion in other forums, probably a forum about NUMA (I am not familiar with this topic). One suggestion about iperf3 is to make sure that the different 8 threads per stream are running on different CPU. E.g. this can be done by running the iperf3 test for long enough time (using the |

Issues fixed (if any): Support affinity/pinning of parallel flows to different CPUs #1738
Brief description of code changes (suitable for use as a commit message):
Suggested support for multi-CPU Affinity option on Linux. The PR is only for Linux, since I don't have FreeBSD machine.
The format of a CPUs list is using
/as a separator ("n1/n1/...") since,is already used to separate between the client and server CPUs lists.The fix is backward compatible, passing the CPUs list to the server in a new "server_cpu_set" JSON item and passing the first CPU defined in the server's list in the legacy "server_affinity" item.
