There are a couple of important points to consider when using Flowtables. Depending on the traffic characteristics, Flowtables may also drop the network performance. It also depends on the amount of rules and their configuration. For example, if we had much much more rules in nftables file for so many different operations (think of it like adding a new rule per IP address), Flowtables would hurt the performance in Ubicloud. They go hand in hand with how the overall network is configured. In our case at Ubicloud, it helps us, but we have a fairly simple Nftables definition as you can see a big part of it here https://github.com/ubicloud/ubicloud/blob/main/prog/vnet/upd...
