Hi,
I run click  1.5 in a measurement configuration in user space. Copies of 
packets are captured with FromDevice, queued, shaped with RatedUnqueued, 
processed through some of my own elements, handed over to the ArpQuerier, then 
queued and sent to ToDevice  bounded to the second interface. If I use 
NotifierQueue the setup works fine if the traffic level is around 1.6 Mbit/sec. 
However, if the traffic level is lowered to the 200 Kbit/sec range, the 
ToDevice element repeats a roughly 20 second on and 20 second off period. The 
queue element before the ToDevice fills up and drops packets. If I change the 
queuing element to SimpleQueue, the problem disappears. 
The actual problem is therefore solved, but I would have liked to know why 
there is a problem with NotifierQueue. The underlying assumption is that I have 
missed something  important.
Regards
Øivind Kure
