One extra thing I haven't underlined so well in my announce: cisco routers
(and as well as other ones maybe) start crawling even forwarding the flood not
being the target itself only. Looks like an UDP handling problem for me :(
I have managed to kill a 7513 Cisco Router with DCEF enabled and loads of
other speed hacks. Try it for yourself :)
