There are smaller mysteries in different corners, but they usually come down to something like:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">- the queue has been lost</div><div class="">- it's configured wrong</div><div class="">- that’s how it should be</div><div class="">- the device or driver isn’t working right</div><div class="">- the device is multi-queue</div><div class="">- the cpu is over-taxed</div><div class="">- the timer resolution isn’t high enough</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Maybe we can make these deployment issues easier for people to deal with over time, first through documentation, then proposing and implementing solutions if they become clear. Overall though, I’m glad Cake is available, because in many situations people can just add a few keywords and enjoy the benefits…</div><div class=""><br class=""></div></body></html>
