The last VLAN patchset was outdated, sorry about the mixup. These are the

Is there any significant performance penalty in creating VLANs using
these patches?
If you have a test station handy, could you let us know what 'time'
shows for a script
creating 4000 VLANs with the old vconfig/ioctl method v/s this new method?
Not significantly more, for 1000 VLANs I get:
ip link add:
real 0m22.836s
user 0m0.100s
sys 0m5.850s
vconfig add:
real 0m19.739s
user 0m0.090s
sys 0m3.600s
Thanks for doing the tests. That small performance drop seems
fine to me.
ip -b (batch add):
real 0m5.239s
user 0m0.280s
sys 0m3.480s
And that looks quite interesting!
