Hi Tom,

I watched your FLOSS video
([https://hackaday.com/2025/09/17/floss-weekly-episode-847-this-is-networking/](https://hackaday.com/2025/09/17/floss-weekly-episode-847-this-is-networking/))
on xdp2, and I'm very interested in your claim that the code-generated
parser outperforms a hand-coded one.

Could you provide an example to demonstrate this? This would be a
great addition to the xdp2 README.md
([https://github.com/xdp2-dev/xdp2/blob/main/README.md](https://github.com/xdp2-dev/xdp2/blob/main/README.md)).

Demonstrating that xdp2 generates a faster parser than a widely used
parser, like your protobuf example, would significantly boost its
visibility.
