[c-nsp] Question about SVI interface acl counters + way of working

Hello,

Just wanted to drop some UDP flooding with an interface ACL.
I configured:

interface Vlan1373
 ip access-group block-flood in
exit

Access-list is very simple:
edge1-ams3#sh ip access-lists block-flood
Extended IP access list block-flood
    10 deny udp any host 1.2.3.4 (589878 matches)
    20 permit ip any any (149516 matches)
edge1-ams3#

edge1-ams3#sh int  Vl1373 | inc  input rate
  30 second input rate 2772775000 bits/sec, 435403 packets/sec
edge1-ams3#

The interface has a quite high amount of pps, but the acl hit count
increases only by less than 200/sec for both entries together.

Does that ACL not filter all traffic passing the interface or why does the
delta of ACL hits not match the number of incoming pps ?
Maybe it counts only packets going to the RP or something is cached and
counts only every x packets ?

Hardware is a Sup2T + WS-X6704-10GE, all traffic in that vlan is routed.

kind regards
Rolf
