[c-nsp] Performance Degradation Using VLANs

[Rodney Dunn]

The performance hit would be very very little.

That's because the mac header rewrite is prebuilt
by CEF to include the vlan/dmac/smac information
and it's preprened just like if the vlan isn't
there.

You would have to test it to get exact numbers but
I've never seen anyone mention a difference in
the software forwarding path when adding subinterfaces
as a trunk that map to vlans.
