If I recall correctly, there's a number of entries handled in ASIC (hw),
which you cannot see or monitor, and in dynamic cam (sw), which you can
monitor with the values below.
Once they both run out, it starts processing packets over CPU, and that
really doesn't work.

Thanks for confirming I'm not crazy !
This is exactly what I've been saying to this customer: You're using
to much L4 entries, resize the CAM so L4 entries will be plenty.
But this customer (a VERY stubborn one, BTW) claims something like
"but this never happened before, how come this happens now ?"
I'll back there and try to take a more "psychological" than a
technical approach this time.
BTW, why the output does not show how much L4 entries in hardware are
being used ?
When it displays:
L4 pool 3 index range:
(sw) 40960 - 43519 (0x0a000 - 0x0a9ff), free 0 (0x00000)
(hw) 24576 - 27135 (0x06000 - 0x069ff)
sw means software and hw means hardware (duh!), but what is their
practical meaning anyway ?
