summary

Examines how Istio and Envoy sidecars affect latency and throughput for edge deployments by benchmarking bare-metal and VM Kubernetes clusters and measuring north-south and east-west traffic. Uses Top-Down microarchitectural analysis and CPU hot-spot profiling to identify Linux kernel and iptables-related bottlenecks in the Kubernetes network stack. Presents benchmark results, gaps found in open-source components, and deployment considerations for using service mesh in latency-sensitive edge environments.
