Current data structure is using a hash of unordered lists. Those unordered lists are quite efficient, because the least recently inserted entries are most likely to be used again. In order to avoid long search times in other cases, the lists are hashed into many buckets. Unfortunatly a search for a miss needs an exhaustive inspection and a careful definition of the hash. Splay trees offer a similar feature: Almost O(1) for access of the least recently used entries, and amortized O(ln(n)) for almost all other cases. Get rid of the hash. Now the data structure should able to quickly react to external packets without eating CPU cycles for breakfast, preventing a DoS.

FreeBSD Source:
This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
