See src/mkifaces.cc for the microbench that shows the scaling issues with lots of interfaces. I'd hoped to have time to test it on the weekend, but other stuff got in the way. The quick guide to setup is: ./configure --with-l2tp make insmod kernel/kern.o insmod drivers/l2tp/l2tp_k.o make -C src mkifaces src/mkifaces Although I'm not sure if this works on 2.6 in this build as most of my development was done on 2.4 over the summer.
