Description
### problem
Using CS4.22.0 VPC vRouter - Routed scenario, using above 2CPUs and 2GiB RAM, performance is not increased, we noticed similar behavior on NAT'ed VPCs also: no Load balancer or other features besides the custom ACLs.
Using as router only with the BGP up, I created a 4CPU and 4G vRouter and a 8CPU and 8GvRouter, the performance does not improve on throughput is seems it reaches about 800Gbps and stop there, and sometimes traffic freezes, and many times using pipe commands make the vRouter to crash.
**This performance issue is not observed on the same configuration on Isolated Networks.** where we reached 5Gbps to the VM.
### versions
CS 4.22.0 with 1:1 oversubscription - no Oversubscription on CPU neither on memory
Host Ubuntu 22.4 KVM
### The steps to reproduce the bug
1. Create a routed VPC - Dynamic routing
2. use a Network Offering with 8CPU and 8GiB RAM
3. Create the custom ACL's
4. Apply, and Crete a VM
5. Test using a massive file ...
### What to do about it?
This Issue is observed on VPCs only, and is more noticeable on Routed VPCs-
Important the same test on Isolated NAT networks have no issues, we reached 5Gbps, with complex firewall configurations.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reproducing the routed VPC scenario with the listed 8-CPU/8-GiB Network Offering, custom ACLs, BGP, and a VM, then compare throughput with an isolated network. Check whether scaling vRouter resources changes throughput and whether pipe commands trigger freezes or crashes; done means the routed VPC no longer exhibits the performance ceiling or crashes.
