Hello.

Question: how are you slicing the flowspace?  Fwiw, if you are using
ip addresses, apparently recently some bug has crept into the code[1]
where the flowvisor deletes more than it should.  I should be fixing
the problem soon, but it would be ncie to know if this is a known or
new issue.

Thanks,

- Rob

[1] It's in our bug trac DB as bug #162
