But these are in cache, so the routes will be very short. And SSKs with very high HTL (18, 17, 16) have good success rates, so this code won?t affect them much less than low-HTL SSKs (the unsuccessful ones). After HTL 15 or so, their success rate drops massively - which is quite easy to explain: The content mostly isn?t there. Simply take the success-rate per HTL - as in the statistics window.
