Linux kernel source tree
Looking at timestamped output of netdev CI reveals that most of the time in forwarding tests for custom route hashing is spent on a single case, namely the test which uses ping (mausezahn does not support flow labels). On a non-debug kernel we spend 714 of 730 total test runtime (97%) on this test case. While having flow label support in a traffic gen tool / mausezahn would be best, we can significantly speed up the loop by putting ip vrf exec outside of the iteration. In a test of 1000 pings using a normal loop takes 50 seconds to finish. While using: ip vrf exec $vrf sh -c "$loop-body" takes 12 seconds (1/4 of the time). Some of the slowness is likely due to our inefficient virtualization setup, but even on my laptop running "ip link help" 16k times takes 25-30 seconds, so I think it's worth optimizing even for fastest setups.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
