Thanks. As an added explanation - the benchmarking I did for nftables
indicated that we're somewhere between 50 and 110 cycles for a "usual"
rule on my x2. So its really easy to degrade performance significantly
by just requiring a few more cycles. The upside is that it works in both
directions :)
Can I at least make it a single patch (i.e. on top of the batch of 6
that do the minimal transformation) or does it need to be right from
the start? (at the expensive of enlarging the patch and setting up
the reviewer ;-)
I'm not sure which batch of 6 you're referring to, but in general
having a lower patch size for these transformations is preferrable
to me; having a slight potential performance degradation that is
fixed up immediately is not a real problem.
I hope that answered your question.
