Now that we have the pif_index optimized search in place, what are
the performance numbers with and without the "one socket per
interface" patch?

Is this a race that is in the vanilla FEA?
If yes, what is the sequence of events/commands we can use to
reproduce it?

In any case, as discussed previously, please create a Bugzilla entry
and add your patch to it.
There will be more refactoring in the FEA, so during that
refactoring your patch can be considered as well.

Thanks,
