But what about if tree lookup were free :-)

This is why I consider Robert Olsson's trash work the most promising,
if we stick sockets into his full flow identified routing cache trie
entries, we can eliminate lookup altogether.

Just like how he already uses traffic inspection to kill cache entries
when FIN shutdown sequence is snooped, we can explicitly flush such
entries when socket is closed fully on local system.

Really, possibilities are truly endless with that thing.
