latest news: FIB updates are sent via the punt-switch (sort of regular ethernet 
switch on the RP) as multicast to all LCs. On A99-RP2-SE RPs this switch has 
flow control enabled. Now, the VSM LC answers to these updates with PAUSE 
frames and therefore the switch throttles the update rate to all LCs close to 
zero.

Good news: as a workaround you can disable flow-control to the punt-switch via 
CLI for specific LCs. 

I'm reluctant to share the CLI command here because it's very hardware specific 
and I don't want anybody to run into problems just because their hardware is 
slightly different from ours.

Cisco will provide a SMU in the next weeks that either disables flow-control on 
these LC or changes the throttle thresholds (not decided yet).

Cheers,

   Thomas
