The reason just occured to me: In the case of a server with
googols of IP aliases, the {faddr, lport, fport} are all the same
(faddr and fport are wildcards) for the listening sockets of a
given service (say http)...so the only thing unique is the laddr,
which if not included in the hash, will cause all of the listening
sockets to be hashed to the same bucket.
Jinx, you'll see that I just made a posting stating this as well ;)
