[lwip-devel] [task #6861] Pimp ip_frag.c

[Kieran Mansley]

Follow-up Comment #3, task #6861 (project lwip):

I'm quite concerned about the risk of running out of PBUFs.  Swapping a
problem of it not performing well (because it can't do much reassembly, and
so more retransmissions are required) for one where the stack grinds to a
halt because its run out of buffers wouldn't be a good idea.  If we can
ensure that doesn't happen, I'd be happier to see this go in.  

Currently the reassembly is admittedly pretty simplistic, but that's not
necessarily a bad thing given lwIP's goals.
