Hi,

First, your results are really impressive in comparison to iptables...

I was wandering two things:

1) How does behave the CPU load during your test ?

As you are using very powerful machines (which is not often the case in
reality for firewalls and router), I was really wandering how the CPU
power can affect your method.

2) How much space was used to store each of the rulessets ?

Your representation seems to be compact, but I was wandering how ?
Maybe a comparison with the size of the iptables rulessets could
be relevant.

Regards
