Path-MTU discovery might be tricky without some sort of per-destination cache, however...


Yes...an idea that tumbled through my brain earlier was to do
something akin to copy-on-write when we receive notification
that the MTU to a particular host is different to the MTU in
the current IRE cache.

I need to go and look at the PMTU RFCs to see whether it is
appropriate for us to do per-connection or per-host PMTU
discovery.  Doing it per-host does save us a couple of packets
on each connection but otherwise...?
