I'd like to better understand ipforwarding scalability mechanism on CMT
servers.
I understand that it's the role of squeue to switch a NIC from interrupt
mode to polling, to guaranty cpu affinity for a connection, to use all
the cores of a CMT server if the NIC is faster than the cpu. How the
mechanism works for ipforwarding ?
If  I'm pushing a STREAMS module after IP, how are ipforwarding
scalability and performance affected ?

Thanks for your help, Adina
