But you are doing this for every daemon for every VRF, things add up

wall really quick.
Are you going to use 16 - 32 MiB boxes to run lots of VRFs though?
Other parts are single-core, both approaches single/multi daemon have
their best use cases.
Perhaps. The question is to how to integrate them.
If they are hard to integrate together then, for me, ultimately multi has
to win, because memory and execution units are only going to increase -
even in the embedded space. The latter we can never take advantage of if
we choose to stick with a fixed, low number of execution contexts.
If not, fine.
