regardless of the type.
+Performance
+-----------
+
+Q: I just upgraded and I see a performance drop. Why?
+
+A: The OVS kernel datapath may have been updated to a newer version than
+ the OVS userspace components. Sometimes new versions of OVS kernel
+ module add functionality that is backwards compatible with older
+ userspace components but may cause a drop in performance with them.
+ Especially, if a kernel module from OVS 2.1 or newer is paired with
+ OVS userspace 1.10 or older, there will be a performance drop for
+ TCP traffic.
+
+ Updating the OVS userspace components to the latest released
+ version should fix the performance degradation.
+
+ To get the best possible performance and functionality, it is
+ recommended to pair the same versions of the kernel module and OVS
+ userspace.

Configuration Problems
----------------------
Post-v2.0.0
---------------------
+ - TCP flags matching: OVS now supports matching of TCP flags. This
+ has an adverse performance impact when using OVS userspace 1.10
+ or older (no megaflows support) together with the new OVS kernel
+ module. It is recommended that the kernel and userspace modules
+ both are upgraded at the same time.
- The default OpenFlow and OVSDB ports will change to
IANA-assigned numbers in a future release. Consider updating
your installations to specify port numbers instead of using the
