the comment about
"disable PXF when testing"

I thought the PXF engine was suppose to allow more cef-like switching 
for things like xconnect pseudowires.  Is it generally a bad idea to 
disable this?  I'm asking because we have 7304 w/NSE-100 engines (with 
PXF enabled).

Any feedback would be appreciated.
