We need to work through this quite carefully.
Yes, the NFV case is serious and what I concluded we had most to worry about - before starting to worry about the lower end router chips themselves. But I wasn't aware that people were actually trying to run lede in that, I'd kind of expected a more server-like distro to be used there. Why lede in a NFV? Ease of configuration? Reduced attack surface? (hah) The only x86 chip I use (aside from simulations) is the AMD one in the apu2, which I don't know enough about as per speculation... -- Dave Täht CEO, TekLibre, LLC http://www.teklibre.com Tel: 1-669-226-2619 _______________________________________________ Cerowrt-devel mailing list Cerowrt-devel@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
