Regarding SCTP performance

[vansi wow]

Hi Michael,
                    Since we use NetBSD 3.0 on the router,  the SCTP stack
 code is ported to NetBSD 3.0  with some tweaks for the mips platform.
There are no  packet loss , since for testing ,we hosted both client and
server on the same router . The CPU Load is very minimal since its just a
echo application for the test.

are there any performance related fixes in the new source which helps the
throughput.

Regards,
Vamshi
