Some people on #lartc were wondering about the use of a route cache if there
is only one route. It was reported that a single default route on a system
that talks to many destinations would lead to a huge route cache, which is
probably not more efficient than looking up the simple route.
Would this 'small efficient flow cache' also solve this problem?
I contend there is no "problem". Routing cache entries are
garbage collected, and even this can be tuned via sysctl.
