Thanks Fran=E7ois-Fr=E9d=E9ric. That puts real good perspective on the cost=
 for
the vent assuming each packet in the fast will result
in an event. If event rate is orders of magnitude less than the packet
rate, then I guess we can still achieve 10G since the "extra cost" will be
in the event thread and not in the fast path thread.

Sambath
