Thanks Thomas, When you analyze the "huge" codebase it breaks into 3 parts: 1. A common l-thread subsystem ( ~2Kloc ) 2. An l3fwd derived example ( ~2Kloc) 3. An hello world example pthread shim ( ~700loc ) If there is interest in lightweight threads the hope/expectation is that the l-thread subsystem would become an rte library. On the scale of things I would describe it as an average sized lib in DPDK terms. As for the examples, obviously there needs to be some example, but perhaps it is not so critical if they are retained in the present form, at least this is the only place I can see to save lines of code.
