I'm facing a simple 2-way decision.

[Daniel Ivanov <sertys@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My choice is between ipt_CLASSIFY and ipt_MARK . I've modified both in a 
way, so they return NF_ACCEPT as a verdict, when a special knob is 
placed and am "identifying" my client connections and thus getting them 
into the right class.

However, i thought CLASSIFY would be way too faster than MARK, because i 
don't have e filter in tc thus. But that just ain't the case.
Is ipt_CLASSIFY slower than ipt_MARK in terms of getting the packets 
into the right queue class?
