I didn't say that all MPPP bundles were flaky. The majority are not. But on the whole, it seems that there is a greater chance of flakiness within bundles than in CEF implementations.
When I say flakiness, it generally boils down to what you had said before - lots of overhead and buffering involves. I've seen CPU's spike to 100% when processing lots of MPPP traffic. I've also seen bundles/links that bounce until the end of time. Things like that. ""Michael L.
