I *really* like the ESFQ idea. I appears to be exactly what I'm looking for. From what I can tell from this mailing list, SFQ is getting some or all of the ESFQ features. Although the ESFQ web site gives detailed information about the status for inclusion in mainline, I am having trouble finding out exactly what (if any) parts of ESFQ got into SFQ in mainline. Did any of the ESFQ-like enhancements for SFQ reach .23 or do I still need to patch? I am running a stripped-down Fedora 8 box and it would be very convenient if the patches were already in .23 or added by the Fedora team. I tried to run the ESFQ command against SFQ, but the command was rejected: /sbin/tc qdisc add dev eth1 parent 1:12 handle 12: sfq perturb 10 hash ctnatchg It appears the even if the kernel does have the patches, the shipped version tc does not. ..Jeff
