I expected your aggressive support for small packets was for fintech.
An anecdote:
one of the largest exchanges in the world used MX for multicast
replication,

Yttinet has pesky customers who care about single TCP performance over
long fat links, and observe poor performance with shallow buffers at
the provider end. Yttinet is cost sensitive and does not want to

In Ohtanet, I presume.

If you grow a window, and the sender sends the delta at 100G, and
receiver is 10G, eventually you'll hit that 10G port at 100G rate.
It's largely an edge problem, not a

Yes but it's not an addressable market.

Thank you for this.
I wish there would have been a deeper dive to the lookup side. My open questions
a) Trio model of packet stays in single PPE until done vs. FP model of
line-of-PPE (identical cores). I don't understand the advantages of
the FP model, the Trio model advantages are clear to me.

Nokia FP is like >1k, Juniper Trio is closer to 100 (earlier Trio LUs
had much less). I could give exact numbers for EA and YT if needed,
they are visible in the CLI
