+Open Flow rules processing considerations
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The native Open vSwitch firewall driver increases the number of Open Flow rules
+to be installed in the integration bridge, that could be up to thousands of
+entries, depending on the number or rules, rule type and number of ports in the
+compute node.
+
+By default, these rules are written into the integration bridge in batches. The
+``_constants.AGENT_RES_PROCESSING_STEP`` constant defines how many rules are
+written in a single operation. It is set to 100.
+
+As seen in `LP#1934917 <https://bugs.launchpad.net/neutron/+bug/1934917>`_,
+during the Open Flow processing (that could be better displayed during the OVS
+agent initial transient period), there could be some inconsistencies in the
+port rules. In order to avoid them, the configuration variable
+``OVS.openflow_processed_per_port`` allows to process all Open Flow rules
+related to a single port in a single transaction.
+
+The following script provides a tool to measure, in each deployment, the
+processing time when using ``OVS.openflow_processed_per_port`` or
+the default ``_constants.AGENT_RES_PROCESSING_STEP``:
+
+.. code-block:: bash

+    openstack network create net-scale
+    openstack subnet create --subnet-range 10.250.0.0/16 --network net-scale snet-scale

+    # (2) Create 400 ports bound to one host
+    for i in {1..400}
