From e6308be85afee685347fa3440bed10faaa5d6c1a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Robert Olsson Date: Tue, 4 Oct 2005 13:01:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [IPV4]: fib_trie root-node expansion The patch below introduces special thresholds to keep root node in the trie large. This gives a flatter tree at the cost of a modest memory increase. Overall it seems to be gain and this was also proposed by one the authors of the paper in recent a seminar. Main table after loading 123 k routes. Aver depth: 3.30 Max depth: 9 Root-node size 12 bits Total size: 4044 kB With the patch: Aver depth: 2.78 Max depth: 8 Root-node size 15 bits Total size: 4150 kB An increase of 8-10% was seen in forwading performance for an rDoS attack.
