What're the advantages to keeping a larger amount of data cached in this instance ina situation with a one local network and one default gateway (and 95% of the traffic comes via the gateway)? Will increasing rtq_toomany speed up the routing decision still? (e.g. is the decision to use the default route or reply back to the local network going to be that much slower than extracting it from the cache?) -Dave Andersen -- angio@aros.net Complete virtual hosting and business-oriented system administration Internet services.
