Mhh good point :) I was thinking of calling it from the raw table,

Maybe something like the untracked conntrack? IIRC someone posted
a patch for something similar (propagation of parameters to helpers)
some time ago.
OK, I'll look at this. Can we push the current version (plus
discussed changes) now and tag if for 2.6.27 and try to solve above
problem later (2.6.28)?
I would prefer to see a final solution before pushing
it upstream. Having it only implemented half-way forces
an additional allocation on everyone (even those not
even compiling the feature in now) for now gain.
Not really as my patch makes possible do disable accounting, I even
initially proposed to disable it by default. If accounting is disabled
then there is no additional allocation.
Yes, but then I'll get a bunch of bug reports :) And its
unlikely that most people will notice or touch this value.
