Oh man, on first reading I definitely thought it was saying "with experimental technologies, Linux can drop all traffic", which would have been a hilarious dig.

Oh man, on first reading I definitely thought it was saying "with experimental technologies, Linux can drop all traffic", which would have been a hilarious dig... but I think "drop all incoming packets" is a useful benchmark for evaluating overhead, like doing conntrack for every packet that hits then immediately discarding it.
