Hi Han!

I'm working on the port of ovn-northd to DDlog.  It works, and now we're
working on optimizations.  One of the areas where the DDlog
implementation has performance limitations is around ID allocation for
datapaths and ports, so Leonid is working on a new allocator.

OVN supports static assignments for datapath and port IDs, which I
believe is for the use of interconnection.  The new allocator is going
to work out better if statically assigned IDs are limited to some range
that the allocator does not use for dynamic assignments.  For example,
the static assignments could be the top half (or top N, or whatever) of
the range.  Is that something that would be OK for the interconnection
feature?  If so, we can make OVN allocation much more efficient; if not,
we'll have to think a lot harder.

Thanks,

Ben.
