Hi Ferruh,

Yes, there will probably be next versions in the future. If you don't mind
making the marker length adjustment, that would be great.

Regarding MBUF (re)sizing  - Arkville supports the ability to configure or
reconfigure the MBUF size used on a per-queue basis. This feature is useful
when the are conflicting motivations for using smaller/larger MBUF sizes.
For example, user can switch a queue to use a size best for that
queue's application workload.
