If so, the patch would likely help. If not, it shouldn't really affect the DoS case or the normal traffic case, because I doubt we have been the target of any hashing-specific attacks. I've been looking through the patch and there seem to be quite a few changes, including some that may optimize it. I'm about to test it out on a test machine and do some benchmarks. I'll post my results in the next day or so.
