when it cannot keep up with real-time. bug: This affected encapsulated simulator packets that had to cross multiple physical nodes before arriving at the destination simulator traffic agent. This bug didnt affect live packets from traffic sources on real PCs. The NSESWAP event is now sent via the tevc command. The nse scheduler waits for the slop factor (diff between clock and event dispatch time that exceeds a threshold) to be crossed multiple times in a second before sending the NSESWAP event. Currently 5 times in 1 second. However, this needs more careful thought and will get modified later. When is it really necessary to declare that an nse is overloaded? i.e. what is the right slop factor? How many times can we tolerate that the slop factor is exceeded to ensure end-to-end performance is within a certain percentage of the expected?
