RE: [midcom] SNMPv3 as MIDCOM protocol: Opinions?

I don;t have the stats, but remembering the implementation I did
a few years back, I see no problem with a number of transactions
per minute. Many SETs per second might become problematic,
depending on the complexity of the SETs and what a SET
would cause in underlying work and such.

Thanks,
Bert
