You are right. I will work with Sangfor to quantify the real impact in their production scenario -- what DAMOS action is driven by the inflated hot-memory readings, and how badly the monitoring error affects the actual outcome. Thank you, David, and Zi Yan for the honest and constructive feedback. It made me realize I should have led with the problem, not the mechanism. Let me take a step back, gather concrete data on the problem severity, and come back with a clearer picture. I will follow up in this thread once I have something solid to share. Thanks, Lian Wang
