[Babel-users] Please test master

Hi Juliusz,

I tested babeld-1.8.3 with around 60 routes on 8 nodes (7 x86_64 and 1
Rasp Pi) and also confirmed it works.

I haven't noticed this phenomenon.
I also deployed RTT measurement, and I will continue to watch my network.

BTW, I disagree with the word "extreme".
One of my productive environment uses BGP full-table from 3 upstream
ISPs (HE, NTT, IIJ, each with 785k routes).
Babeld simply refused to run on this environment, blocking the whole
network without converging, with 100% CPU utilization.
I am curious about whether babeld can be adapted to run with
full-table. And I will start a new mail thread about this question.
