 I've deployed an MPLS core for IPng Networks, which allows me to provide L2VPN services, and at the
 same time keep an IPng Site Local network with IPv4 and IPv6 that is separate from the internet,

 In the last article, I explored VPP's MPLS implementation a little bit.  All the while,
 [@vifino](https://chaos.social/@vifino) has been tinkering with the Linux Control Plane and adding
 MPLS support to it, and together we learned a lot about how VPP does MPLS forwarding and how it
 sometimes differs to other implementations.  During the process, we talked a bit about

 maybe deserves a bit more explanation. At the same time, I could not help but wonder what the
 performance is of VPP as a _P-Router_ and _PE-Router_, compared to say IPv4 forwarding.

 These machines get a fresh Debian Bookworm install and VPP 23.06 without any plugins. It's weird for
