DPDK gets impressive performance on large systems (like 14M packets/sec per core), but not convinced on smaller systems.
Performance depends on having good CPU cache. I get poor performance on Atom etc.
Also driver support is limited (mostly 10G and above)

I'm looking at DPDK for a project, but I think I can make substantial gains with just AF_PACKET + FANOUT and SO_REUSEPORT.  It's not clear to my yet how much DPDK is going to gain over those (and those can go a long way on higher-powered platforms).

On lower-end systems, I'm more suspicious of the memory bus (and the cache in particular), than I am the raw CPU power.
