another thing is you will see increased latency and jitter as your
packets
individually queue for cpu process timeThanks, that statement is significantly different than: 1) That is very deadly 2) If you want to crater your router, sure both referring to "no ip route-cache" I was just pushing for more moderate statements :-)
We were assuming he was actually pushing traffic, not using the router for a doorstop. An NPE-200 should push around 200kpps (no features) using CEF; that drops to less than 15kpps with process switching. Lowering a router's performance by over 90% qualifies as "cratering" in my world. S
