Routing table vulnerability comparison between two versions and analysis of performance in a scenari

Hi Routing tables in a typical linux kernel are implemented using hash data structures. So if the hash table is forced to behave more like a linked list(i.e create chaining) the purpose of using hash is defeated and time complexity increases. I want to try to assess the performance deterioration...

nscd

NSCD(8) 						    BSD System Manager's Manual 						   NSCD(8)

NAME

     nscd -- name service caching daemon

SYNOPSIS

     nscd [-dnst] [-i cachename] [-I cachename]

DESCRIPTION

     The nscd utility is the system caching daemon.  It can cache almost all types of data and is basically intended to be used with the nsswitch
     subsystem.  The cache is actually per-user.  This means that each user can work only with the cached data that were cached by themselves, and
     cannot poison the cache of other users.  The nscd utility supports two types of caching:

     Type  Description

     Common caching
	   Each cached element is the key+value pair.  This type of caching supports policies which are applied when maximum number of cached ele-
	   ments is exceeded.  Three policies are available: FIFO (first in - first out), LRU (least recently used) and LFU (least frequently
	   used).  This type of caching is used with the getXXXbyname() family of functions.

     Multipart caching
	   Each cached element is the part of the elements sequence.  This type of caching is intended to be used with the getXXXent() family of
	   functions.

     The nscd utility is able not only to cache elements, but to perform the actual nsswitch lookups by itself.  To enable this feature, use the
     perform-actual-lookups parameter in nscd.conf(5).

     The nscd utility recognizes the following runtime options:

     -n      Do not daemonize; nscd will not fork or disconnect itself from the terminal.

     -s      Single-threaded mode.  Forces using only one thread for all processing purposes (it overrides the threads parameter in the
	     nscd.conf(5) file).

     -t      Trace mode.  All trace messages will be written to stdout.  This mode is usually used with -n and -s flags are used for debugging
	     purposes.

     -i cachename
	     Invalidates personal cache.  When specified, nscd acts as the administration tool.  It asks the already running nscd to invalidate
	     the specified part of the cache of the calling user.  For example, sometimes you may want to invalidate your ``hosts'' cache.  You
	     can specify ``all'' as the cachename to invalidate your personal cache as a whole.  You cannot use this option for the cachename for
	     which the perform-actual-lookups option is enabled.

     -I cachename
	     Invalidates the cache for every user.  When specified, nscd acts as the administration tool.  It asks the already running nscd to
	     invalidate the specified part of the cache for every user.  You can specify ``all'' as the cachename to invalidate the whole cache.
	     Only the root can use this option.
