Just so we all understand what has happened to the Hub 3, the code that handles ICMP packets (the BQM pings) has been shifted from the CPU (Puma 6) to one of the comms chips. At least that's my understanding. It makes the BQM look wonderful and does release the CPU to some extent to process the other protocols. However the periodic housekeeping interrupt still occurs. It could be classed as a cosmetic measure.
