I don't believe that it should have any significant effects. Generally, code does operations on the fields based on mf->n_bytes (with the exception of some memset()s here and there). I don't think that we really store these in a large number for any real period of time. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
