all,
who cares as long the bytes flow.
its a long standing credo of cisco software development
that counting bytes will never be as important as moving them.
this focus on how screwed up cisco counters are is an old and weather-beaten
thread.
i have it on good account (former cisco router software engineer) that if an
interface is getting thrashed or its reliability factors will be effected
the emphasis is NOT on how many got counted but rightly so, did we move it
all?
counters are low priority in the IOS execution space and is treated as such.
give it a rest.
