We have done some testing and we are able to handle a flow entry setting of 4M and still update the flow statistics fast enough to keep the flows from timing out.

We still have an issue with being able to handle the Mirror Meta data with 4M entries. There is not enough memory on the SmartNIC to support 4M 540B mirror entries. That comes out to 2.7G and we only have 2G on the card.

Raja suggested that we use a mirror id to index the Mirror metadata vs using flowid. This would allow us to cap Mirrors to say 512K which we are able to fit.

So we are still investigating that aspect and will update.
