Looking at the code I think that Haralds intention was to have those timers because IPFIX supports (at least principially) higher-precision timerstamps. IMO ideally there should be added a config switch for that. My next round of patches will clean up the existing code base further, with focus on the ulogd core. /holger - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
