- Use new experimental LC-trie as FIB lookup algorithm.
- This improves lookup performance if you have a large
- number of routes.
-
- LC-trie is a longest matching prefix lookup algorithm which
- performs better than FIB_HASH for large routing tables.
- But, it consumes more memory and is more complex.
-
- LC-trie is described in:

Keep track of statistics on structure of FIB TRIE table.
Useful for testing and measuring TRIE performance.
