[bwm-tools-tech] Experience with libnetfilter-queue

[Simon P. <dn...@gm...>]

Hi,

I'd like to ask what your experience with the libnetfilter-queue
library are. I'm planning to implement some traffic shaping app on my
own using libnetfilter-queue and I wonder how efficient it is.
bwm-tools is the first program I came across that uses
libnetfilter-queue, that's why I ask here.

Can I pipe big numbers of packets through libnetfilter-queue without
noticeable latency or should I rather do it within the kernel directly?

Thanks,
Simon
