The context has gotten messy here, so I’m going to break down and top-post. I started review https://reviews.freebsd.org/D10059 with a fix for the reference-count leak. It changes the semantics so only routes within an in_pcb automatically do L2 caching. I’ll put the tcp_output change for V6 in a separate review when this one is done. Andrey, could you try your iperf test again? Thanks, Mike On 14 Mar 2017, at 21:39, Mike Karels wrote: > On 14 Mar 2017, at 3:50, Andrey V.
