Description

I have seen suricata is doing pkt by pkt processing in each run mode(Recv,Decode,Verdict) , can suricata process the pkts in bulk mode like collect pkts from port and process those pkts and again Recv next bulk (conidering all modes running in single core)?

Just to check performance with single core without running all the increasing the memory constraints in yaml file.

Single mode means we have a single packet thread, but there are still other threads. Esp the flow manager will also access the flow the packet thread(s) may be working on.
