Zusammenfassung:Optimizing receive side scaling (RSS) key selection is provided. Different weights are assigned to different fields of flow data corresponding to a network connection of a registered client device. A score is generated representing an amount of balanced processor loading for each RSS key corresponding to the registered client device based on the different fields of the flow data with assigned weights. A current RSS key on the registered client device is updated with an optimal RSS key based on the score corresponding to the optimal RSS key representing balanced loading of processors on the registered client device.
