We have tried it in setups with no more than 4 OSPF speakers, including the MAX, and perhaps 4 dozen routes total, with only a few of them changing more than once every few hours at most. If it can't handle that.... > > BTW, is there still no way to get CPU and memmory consumption information > on these units? Memory, sure. Go into diagnostics mode and do a "pools". Or ospfPrivMem for some OSPF details. Hehe, or: sntp -> lonitor SNTP action Didn't notice that ability to lonitor things before. May be fixed in more recent revisions, wouldn't know since we can't run them. No CPU use that I am aware of, because that would probably reveal just how horrid some things are.
