The good news is there is no impact when used=20 with or without namespaces. That has been checked using a real network=20 device inside a network namespace. These results are consistent with the ones previously made for ipv4. http://lxc.sourceforge.net/network/bench_ipv6_graph.php Thanks to Benjamin who did all the performance tests :) Regards -- Daniel Sauf indication contraire ci-dessus: Compagnie IBM France Si=E8ge Social : Tour Descartes, 2, avenue Gambetta, La D=E9fense 5, 92= 400 Courbevoie RCS Nanterre 552 118 465 =46orme Sociale : S.A.S.
