Hi,
        This is really interesting work!  Reading the pdf file, it
seems forwarding performance on 6 and 7 is still much lower than
RELENG_4 ?  is that correct ?

Thanks,

Yes it is still slower but as you can see in the graph (programming cost) just adding a mutex
drop the rate and we have some on the forwarding path.

We have beaten FreeBSD 4.x with pollng on 2 core with the best throughput at 7089Mb/s but only when the test last 10s => maybe periodic task that get some CPU time.

One really interesting things is that FreeBSD 7.x can have great performance: It performs slower than FreeBSD 6.x when using one CPU (4437 vs 5017) but
better when using 2 CPU (5214 vs 5026).

While reading the pdf i've discovered a mistake in the loss percentage: it is 0.001% and not 0.0001%.
