All:

Ok so I have had a first cut of an A/B test with a machine using fixed =
calls to tcp_do_segment/output etc and
one using the new pluggable pointer based stack. As expected I can=92t =
really tell any real difference between
the two machines.

They are both Intel Ivy Bridge E5-2650L Intel CPU=92s. Running at =
1.7Ghz, 64G of memory and 10 physical cores.

Here are png=92s of the per second cpu use and the overall serving =
bandwidth (if anyone wants the raw numbers
let me know).

The two machines are basically the same, serving the same content.

I have a few other pairs I will be trying this on.. though I don=92t =
expect any real difference.

Robert, how are you coming on investigating the overhead of function =
pointers on non-intel devices ?

I would like to commit the tcp-stack changes soon if possible :-)
