## Known limitations
* Linux TC filters are apparently not cleared from memory after being removed/disassociated with qdiscs. This leads to gradually increasing memory use. One solution is to reboot the VM or server once a week. With an OSPF setup that would mean just 10 or so total seconds of client downtime per week. Still, there must be a better solution. Please contact me if you know of a way to clear linux tc filters' memory usage without a reboot.

```
sudo sh -c 'echo 1 >/proc/sys/vm/drop_caches'
```
