Can you tell me if I understand correctly by commenting that example: for every packet that includes a Routing Header with something like 88 addresses in it (feasible with a 1500 PMTU), a router with 5 addresses will check every address it is configured with against those 88 ones (440 comparisons). With 100 Mbit/s of traffic, the router can see almost 9000 such packets per second. Where I come is that it will have to perform something like 4 millions IPv6 address comparison per sec, and in slow path. Is that correct ?
