 As i40e PMD supports both 16 and 32 bytes RX descriptor sizes, and 16 bytes size can provide helps to high performance of small packets.
 Configuration of ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_I40E_16BYTE_RX_DESC`` in config files can be changed to use 16 bytes size RX descriptors.
 
-High Performance and per Packet Latency Tradeoff
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Due to the hardware design, the interrupt signal inside NIC is needed for per
-packet descriptor write-back. The minimum interval of interrupts could be set
-at compile time by ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_I40E_ITR_INTERVAL`` in configuration files.
-Though there is a default configuration, the interval could be tuned by the
-users with that configuration item depends on what the user cares about more,
-performance or per packet latency.
