From 11274e5a43266d531140530adebead6903380caf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stephen Hemminger Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2007 12:17:42 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] [NETEM]: avoid excessive requeues The netem code would call getnstimeofday() and dequeue/requeue after every packet, even if it was waiting. Avoid this overhead by using the throttled flag. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.
