Naaa...  I'm not quite that brave yet.

I'm sure there are things like memcaps for bpf and the like to set and
I'd love to see a good technical paper other than the winpcap one on
pcap performance's as well as tuning.

Hrm...

I'm also pretty sure one of the security websites would even pay a bit
for an article on tuning of pcap performance.

Most everything I've seen in the past few years ranks right above
voodoo.

Hey, I'm from Louisiana so I gotta believe in voodoo!  :)
